# Treecko #055 — MEP Black Star Promos

## Summary

Treecko carries the weight of being a Hoenn starter, and that generation's fans have stayed loyal through every remake and anniversary push, so even a modest promo finds people who want it. Saboteri is a name collectors follow, and as a Black Star Promo this is a side-door printing, not a booster chase. The sold median sits at $5.37, down 30% over 30 days on 1,129 copies traded, with only 3 days of inventory on the board; no PSA population is on file, and a ACE 10 would fetch about $63 against $49 in grading fees.
