# Swablu #213/182 — Paradox Rift

## Summary

Swablu is a Hoenn favorite with a devoted following, and its cotton-cloud charm makes it a natural fit for Illustration rare treatments, where small, soft Pokémon tend to find eager buyers. Jiro Sasumo's name adds weight, since this tier was a mid-tier chase slot in Paradox Rift, not a bulk pull. At an $18 modelled guide, up 7% over 30 days on 147 copies traded, with only 27 days of inventory on the board, this printing is almost entirely collector premium, since the same card plays for $0.12 out of Surging Sparks; a PSA 10 brings $175, 9.6 times raw, but a 34% gem rate against $65 of fees makes grading a losing trade.
