# Simisear #17/101 — Noble Victories

## Summary

Simisear is a Unova starter-adjacent Fire monkey with a modest but loyal following, and Shin Nagasawa is a long-serving illustrator whose Black & White work suits a binder tidy-up. As an Uncommon in Noble Victories it was a mid-tier pull that most players left in the box. A $0.30 modelled guide with 2 copies traded in 30 days says bulk, and the economics stop there: no PSA population is on file, and the same card plays for $0.07 out of Surging Sparks.
