# Pinsir #25/64 — Jungle

## Summary

Pinsir was a mid-tier Rare pull in Jungle, a respectable find rather than a chase slot, and its Irongrip paralysis flip made it a playable Grass Basic in an era when status effects decided games. Kagemaru Himeno, an original-run artist, adds a draw for Wizards-era completionists. The modelled guide sits at $18 with 35 copies traded in 30 days, and the tape reads as a floor forming near the lows; a CGC 10 brings $74, 4.1 times raw, but PSA does not split this card’s population by finish, so no gem rate can be read for it.
