# Bill #89/123 — HeartGold SoulSilver

## Summary

Bill is the Pokémon Researcher who has been in the games since Red and Blue, and Ken Sugimori, the franchise's original artist, is the name that makes any version of him a talking point. As a plain two-card draw Supporter, it was staple-adjacent utility, so demand stays modest. A $0.35 modelled guide, down 8% over 30 days on 5 copies traded, says bulk, with only 30 days of inventory on the board, and the economics stop there: no PSA population is on file.
