# Monferno #41/100 — Majestic Dawn

## Summary

Monferno is the middle step of the Sinnoh starter line, and Infernape's pull keeps fans of that Fire/Fighting evolution looking at what leads up to it. Uncommons like this were routine pulls in Majestic Dawn, so interest comes from Daisuke Ito's long run on Pokémon art and the nostalgia of Diamond & Pearl. A $0.88 modelled guide, up 9% over 30 days on 5 copies traded, says bulk, with 364 days of inventory on the board, and the economics stop there: PSA does not split this card’s population by finish, so no gem rate can be read for it, and the same card plays for $0.16 out of Twilight Masquerade.
