# Koffing #56/135 — Plasma Storm

## Summary

Koffing in Plasma Storm is a bulk common, a Basic filler pull that never threatened a Black & White-era tournament table. Kagemaru Himeno, a Pokémon TCG illustrator since the earliest sets, gives it a small draw for completionists, and Gen I poison-gas oddballs keep a loyal, modest following. A $0.28 modelled guide, flat over 30 days on 7 copies traded, says bulk, with 1,149 days of inventory on the board, and the economics stop there: no PSA population is on file, and a PSA 10 guides at about $41 against $85 in grading fees, so the only money in this card is finishing a set, not a slab.
