# Sawk #52/101 — Plasma Blast

## Summary

Sawk is a bulk common from a set built around the Team Plasma storyline, and its anti-Plasma bonus is a niche trick that rarely mattered at tournaments. Its draw is Unova nostalgia and Naoki Saito's name in the credit line, so expect a modest, loyal following. A $0.30 modelled guide, flat over 30 days on 21 copies traded, says bulk, with 186 days of inventory on the board, and the economics stop there: a PSA 10 guides at $35, 118 times raw, but PSA does not split this card’s population by finish, so no gem rate can be read for it.
