# Litwick #036/197 — Obsidian Flames

## Summary

Litwick is a Gen V Ghost-and-Fire candle with a cult following, thanks to its creepy-cute concept and an evolution line that fans still talk about. As a common in a set built around Charizard ex chases, it was filler, so demand rests on Nagomi Nijo's name and Ghost-type fondness. A $0.11 modelled guide, down 31% over 30 days on 53 copies traded, says bulk, with 1,917 days of inventory sitting on the board, and the economics stop there: a PSA 10 guides at $31, 281 times raw, but PSA does not split this card’s population by finish, so no gem rate can be read for it.
