# Slugma #22/160 — Primal Clash

## Summary

Slugma is a bulk common from a set built around Primal Groudon and Kyogre, so nobody opened this pack hoping for it. Its attacks were modest and its Johto Fire-type charm gentle, which leaves Miki Tanaka's illustration and completionist binders as the main reasons anyone looks twice. A $0.21 modelled guide, up 5% over 30 days on 3 copies traded, says bulk, with 343 days of inventory on the board, and the economics stop there: a PSA 10 guides at $32, 152 times raw, but PSA does not split this card’s population by finish, so no gem rate can be read for it.
