# Flaaffy #9/15 — McDonald's Collection 2022

## Summary

Flaaffy from McDonald's 2022 is a Happy Meal promo, built for kids and casual fans rather than the chase, so there is no rarity ladder to climb here. Sui is a respected name among Pokémon illustrators, and Johto's pink-wooled Electric sheep keeps a gentle, loyal following. A $0.39 modelled guide with 4 copies traded in 30 days says bulk, and the economics stop there: a PSA 10 guides at $500, 1,282 times raw, but a 4% gem rate against $85 of fees makes grading a losing trade, and the same card plays for $0.14 out of Chaos Rising.
