# Kadabra #149/091 — Paldean Fates

## Summary

Kadabra is a Gen I fan favorite, tied to Alakazam's long run as a competitive staple and to the Uri Geller spoon-bending legacy that made it a quiet point of contention. In Paldean Fates, a Shiny rare is a main-hunt pull, and Gunjima's long-running illustration work adds to the appeal. At an $8.82 modelled guide, up 12% over 30 days on 121 copies traded, with 43 days of inventory on the board, this printing is almost entirely collector premium, since the same card plays for $0.23 out of Twilight Masquerade; a PSA 10 brings $111, 13 times raw, but a 55% gem rate against $85 of fees makes grading a losing trade.
