# Dragonair #158/197 — Obsidian Flames

## Summary

Dragonair is a mid-evolution Dragon from the original 151, loved as the graceful step between Dratini and Dragonite, and Misa Tsutsui is a respected name among illustrators. As an uncommon it was a plain pull in Obsidian Flames, so demand comes from Dragon fans and Gen I completionists rather than tournament play. A $0.29 modelled guide, up 12% over 30 days on 16 copies traded, says bulk, with 1,020 days of inventory on the board, and the economics stop there: PSA does not split this card’s population by finish, so no gem rate can be read for it, and the same card plays for $0.21 out of Ascended Heroes.
