# Gorebyss #17/92 — Legend Maker

## Summary

Gorebyss is a Hoenn Water type that fans of the Clamperl split evolution quietly like, and its Poke-BODY paired with Huntail and React Energy made it a genuine, if niche, deck-building curiosity. Atsuko Nishida, an original Pokémon artist, adds a quiet pedigree to a mid-tier Rare. At a $1.44 modelled guide, with 9 copies traded in 30 days, this printing is almost entirely collector premium, since the same card plays for $0.14 out of Destined Rivals; PSA does not split this card’s population by finish, so no gem rate can be read for it.
