# Wugtrio #053/182 — Paradox Rift

## Summary

Wugtrio is a Paldea-native Water type with a modest fanbase, and this Stage 1 is a mid-tier uncommon, never a chase pull. Its Tool-searching Ability gave it a utility role in the Paradox Rift format, which keeps the interest practical rather than sentimental. A $0.08 modelled guide, flat over 30 days on 23 copies traded, says bulk, with 2,045 days of inventory sitting on the board, and the economics stop there: no PSA population is on file.
