# Vileplume #45/146 — Legends Awakened

## Summary

Vileplume is a Gen I Grass favorite whose Vileplume lock, built on Trainer denial, is part of competitive lore, and this Legends Awakened version nods to that with its own Trainer-blocking coin flip. A regular Rare from a mid-sized Diamond & Pearl set, it draws steady Kagemaru Himeno-and-Kanto nostalgia rather than chase-slot heat. At a $3.31 modelled guide, with no copies traded in 30 days, this printing is almost entirely collector premium, since the same card plays for $0.17 out of Phantasmal Flames; PSA does not split this card’s population by finish, so no gem rate can be read for it.
