# Sandile #68/116 — Plasma Freeze

## Summary

Sandile is a Unova starter-era desert croc with a modest but real fanbase, mostly from players who grew up on Black and White and still have a soft spot for Gen V's weirder designs. As a Plasma Freeze common it was bulk, a binder-filler that rewards Sui's name more than scarcity. A $0.27 modelled guide, flat over 30 days on 4 copies traded, says bulk, with 1,939 days of inventory sitting on the board, and the economics stop there: a PSA 10 guides at $33, 121 times raw, but PSA does not split this card’s population by finish, so no gem rate can be read for it.
