# Luxio #45/99 — Next Destinies

## Summary

Luxio is a Sinnoh middle stage that most fans skip for Luxray, so demand is modest, though Shinx's line keeps a soft spot among Gen IV Lightning collectors. Naoki Saito is a long-serving name in the hobby, and an Uncommon here was a mid-pack pull, not a chase. A $0.24 modelled guide, down 8% over 30 days on 11 copies traded, says bulk, with 570 days of inventory on the board, and the economics stop there: no PSA population is on file, and a PSA 10 guides at about $40 against $65 in grading fees, so the only money in this card is finishing a set, not a slab.
