# Kricketune #4/99 — Next Destinies

## Summary

Kricketune is an Uncommon from Next Destinies, a mid-tier pull in a set where the ex and Full Art cards drew nearly all the attention. Its coin-flip healing attack was never a serious tournament threat, so demand comes from Sinnoh nostalgia and Naoyo Kimura's long track record. A $0.27 modelled guide, up 4% over 30 days on 5 copies traded, says bulk, with 2,849 days of inventory sitting on the board, and the economics stop there: a PSA 10 guides at $34, 124 times raw, but PSA does not split this card’s population by finish, so no gem rate can be read for it.
