# Morpeko #206/182 — Paradox Rift

## Summary

Morpeko's two-faced Hangry Mode gimmick and its hamster-like charm have made it a quiet Galar favorite, and Yuu Nishida is a long-standing name in the Pokémon illustration community. As an Illustration rare in Paradox Rift, it sits in the set's chase tier, where collectors come for artist-driven pulls. At a $61 sold median, up 3% over 30 days on 161 copies traded, with 29 days of inventory on the board, this printing is almost entirely collector premium, since the same card plays for $0.22 out of Twilight Masquerade; a PSA 10 brings $256, 4.2 times raw, but a 37% gem rate against $85 of fees makes grading a losing trade.
