# Meowscarada ex #231/193 — Paldea Evolved

## Summary

Meowscarada ex was the Grass starter's competitive moment, its Bouquet Magic ability letting players pile damage counters onto the Bench, which made it a real piece of the Paldea Evolved metagame. As an Ultra Rare in a big set it is a mid-tier chase, with 5ban Graphics a familiar name for ex cards. The modelled guide sits at $5.06, up 7% over 30 days on 95 copies traded, with 37 days of inventory on the board; a PSA 10 brings $75, 15 times raw, but a 44% gem rate against $85 of fees makes grading a losing trade.
