# Pidgeot ex #164/197 — Obsidian Flames

## Summary

Pidgeot ex carried real competitive weight in its standard window, because Quick Search let a deck fetch any card every turn, and that made it a staple engine rather than a casual pull. Double rare is the modest ex tier, so demand comes from players and Gen I loyalists, with takuyoa's credit as a bonus. The modelled guide sits at $1.12, up 18% over 30 days on 230 copies traded, with 73 days of inventory on the board; PSA does not split this card’s population by finish, so no gem rate can be read for it.
