# Heatmor #23/135 — Plasma Storm

## Summary

Heatmor is an Unova anteater with a loyal niche following, and as an Uncommon in Plasma Storm it was a mid-tier pull that played its part in Fire decks of the era without ever commanding a chase. Suwama Chiaki is a long-running Pokémon TCG illustrator, so completionists have a reason to look. A $0.41 modelled guide with 1 copy traded in 30 days says bulk, and the economics stop there: no PSA population is on file, and the same card plays for $0.05 out of Temporal Forces.
