# Rika #258/182 — Paradox Rift

## Summary

Rika is a Paldea Elite Four member whose Supporter effect was a quiet staple for Paradox-era decks, but the draw here is the special illustration treatment, which turns a utility trainer into a chase slot for character collectors. Kantaro's name adds extra pull among artwork-focused buyers. The modelled guide sits at $8.94, down 8% over 30 days on 94 copies traded, with 36 days of inventory on the board; a CGC 10 brings $50, 5.6 times raw, but a 37% gem rate against $45 of fees makes grading a losing trade.
