# Shiftry #12/92 — Legend Maker

## Summary

Shiftry is a Hoenn Stage 2 with a quietly loyal following, and Mitsuhiro Arita is among the most recognized names in the hobby, having illustrated the original Base Set Charizard. As a regular Rare in Legend Maker, it sat a tier below the ex chases, so demand leans on Arita completists. The modelled guide sits at $14, up 6% over 30 days on 15 copies traded, with 242 days of inventory on the board; a ACE 10 brings $121, 8.7 times raw, but PSA does not split this card’s population by finish, so no gem rate can be read for it.
