# Ninetales #3/16 — Pokémon Rumble

## Summary

Ninetales is a Kantō Fire Type with a devoted following, built on its fox-spirit lore and its place among the original starters' generation of fan favorites. Pokémon Rumble was a small, offbeat release with no chase slot to speak of, so demand here is purely about the Pokémon. At a $373 modelled guide, flat over 30 days on 11 copies traded, with 61 days of inventory on the board, this printing is almost entirely collector premium, since the same card plays for $0.15 out of Chaos Rising; a PSA 10 guides at $3,017, 8.1 times raw, but a 2% gem rate against $85 of fees makes grading a losing trade.
