# Kabutops #25/75 — Neo Discovery

## Summary

Kabutops is a Gen I fossil Pokémon with a steady following, and a Stage 2 Rare from Neo Discovery sits in the middle of that set's pull hierarchy rather than at the chase end. Kimiya Masago is a respected Wizards-era illustrator, which adds a little pull for completists. The modelled guide sits at $37 with 15 copies traded in 30 days; PSA does not split this card’s population by finish, so no gem rate can be read for it, with original packs long past any pull-rate math.
