# Turtwig #1/135 — Plasma Storm

## Summary

Turtwig is a bulk common, the sort of pull that fills a binder slot without anyone chasing it. Still, Sinnoh's Grass starter has a loyal following from the Diamond and Pearl years, and Kouki Saitou is a long-serving Pokémon TCG illustrator, so completionists tend to keep a copy. A $0.49 modelled guide, up 4% over 30 days on 3 copies traded, says bulk, with 1,269 days of inventory on the board, and the economics stop there: PSA does not split this card’s population by finish, so no gem rate can be read for it, and the same card plays for $0.18 out of Temporal Forces.
