# Light Golduck #47/105 — Neo Destiny

## Summary

Light Golduck is a Neo Destiny Uncommon, a mid-tier pull in a set where the Shining and Dark Pokémon took the chase slots. Atsuko Nishida, who helped shape the original Pokémon card art, gives it an easy pedigree, and Gen I Water types keep a steady nostalgic following. The modelled guide sits at $23 with 11 copies traded in 30 days; PSA does not split this card’s population by finish, so no gem rate can be read for it, and the slabbed population has not grown in 30 days, slower than 88% of tracked cards.
