# Meloetta #026 — MEP Black Star Promos

## Summary

Meloetta is a Generation V Mythical with a devoted following, partly for its Aria and Pirouette forms and its place as the Black and White era's musical Psychic. As a Black Star Promo it was never a pack pull, so demand tracks Meloetta fans and completionists rather than set chasers. At a $14 sold median, down 12% over 30 days on 130 copies traded, with only 15 days of inventory on the board, this printing is almost entirely collector premium, since the same card plays for $0.07 out of Phantasmal Flames; a PSA 10 brings $181, 13 times raw, but a 21% gem rate against $85 of fees makes grading a losing trade.
