# Ho-Oh #160/214 — Lost Thunder

## Summary

Ho-Oh holds a devoted following from the Johto games, where it sat on the cover of Gold's counterpart and anchored an entire generation's sense of wonder. A plain Rare in a set crowded with bigger chase pulls, it sells to Ho-Oh loyalists rather than set hunters. At a $1.23 modelled guide, up 3% over 30 days on 11 copies traded, with 493 days of inventory on the board, 86% of this printing’s price is collector premium, since the same card plays for $0.17 out of Surging Sparks; PSA does not split this card’s population by finish, so no gem rate can be read for it.
