# Luxray #46/99 — Next Destinies

## Summary

Luxray is a Sinnoh favorite whose glowing-eyed, predator look keeps Gen IV fans loyal, and Next Destinies sat in a Black & White format where Lightning decks leaned on Stage 2 muscle. As a plain Rare it was a mid-tier pull, so demand comes from Luxray lovers and Shin Nagasawa completists. At a $2.35 modelled guide, up 5% over 30 days on 12 copies traded, with only 30 days of inventory on the board, this printing is almost entirely collector premium, since the same card plays for $0.19 out of Perfect Order; PSA does not split this card’s population by finish, so no gem rate can be read for it.
