# Garchomp ex #260/182 — Paradox Rift

## Summary

Garchomp ex is a Sinnoh favorite, a pseudo-legendary that fans have loved since Platinum for its raw power and sleek, shark-jet design. As a Hyper rare in Paradox Rift it sits at the very top of the pull ladder, and 5ban Graphics supplies the gold-treatment look that chase collectors hunt. The sold median sits at $16, up 8% over 30 days on 190 copies traded, with only 13 days of inventory on the board; a CGC 10 brings $85, 5.4 times raw, but a 45% gem rate against $45 of fees makes grading a losing trade.
