# Electrode #2/64 — Jungle

## Summary

Electrode is the Pokéball-lookalike that fans remember for blowing up at the worst moment, and Arita is the artist most collectors associate with the original Base Set look. Chain Lightning's bench splash fit Wizards-era Lightning decks, and a Jungle Rare keeps steady nostalgic demand. The modelled guide sits at $29, flat on asks over 7 days on 106 copies traded in 30 days, and the tape reads as a steady markup with inventory under control; PSA does not split this card’s population by finish, so no gem rate can be read for it, with original packs long past any pull-rate math.
