# Donphan #107/123 — HeartGold SoulSilver

## Summary

Donphan Prime is the sturdy Johto Ground type that Gen II fans have long kept a soft spot for, and the Prime tag meant a real tournament-playable Stage 1 rather than a binder filler. Its damage-reducing Poke-Body made it a respected wall in HGSS-era Fighting decks. At a $48 modelled guide, down 5% over 30 days on 43 copies traded, with 53 days of inventory on the board, this printing is almost entirely collector premium, since the same card plays for $0.08 out of Surging Sparks; PSA does not split this card’s population by finish, so no gem rate can be read for it.
