# Pyroar #12/119 — Phantom Forces

## Summary

Pyroar is a Kalos-region lion with a modest but loyal following among Gen VI fans, and its Flare Command Ability gave it a real gimmick, dragging an opposing Benched Pokémon forward. As a mid-tier Rare in Phantom Forces, it draws players and Naoki Saito completists, not chase hunters. At a $1.02 modelled guide, flat over 30 days on 3 copies traded, with 455 days of inventory on the board, this printing is almost entirely collector premium, since the same card plays for $0.06 out of Prismatic Evolutions; PSA does not split this card’s population by finish, so no gem rate can be read for it.
