# Electrode #22/68 — Hidden Fates

## Summary

Electrode is a Gen I Voltorb-line oddity that fans love for its Poké Ball disguise and its habit of blowing up in the games. In Hidden Fates a regular Rare sat well below the shiny chase slots, so demand here is gentle nostalgia, not scarcity. A $0.24 modelled guide, flat over 30 days on 18 copies traded, says bulk, with 1,642 days of inventory sitting on the board, and the economics stop there: a PSA 10 brings $153, 635 times raw, but PSA does not split this card’s population by finish, so no gem rate can be read for it.
