# Aerodactyl #1/92 — Legend Maker

## Summary

Aerodactyl is a Kanto fossil Pokémon with a dependable fanbase, and Legend Maker gave it the opening slot among the set's regular rares, a respectable pull rather than a chase. Hajime Kusajima is a long-serving Pokémon TCG illustrator, so this is a modest nostalgia pickup for fossil-line completionists. The modelled guide sits at $76 with 25 copies traded in 30 days; PSA does not split this card’s population by finish, so no gem rate can be read for it.
