# Whiscash #41/160 — Primal Clash

## Summary

Whiscash is a Hoenn Water/Ground with a small but devoted following, mostly from fans who like its grumpy catfish face. The α Growth Ancient Trait gave it a real hook in Primal Clash, but as a mid-tier Rare it was never the pull anyone opened that pack hoping for. The modelled guide sits at $1.34, up 3% over 30 days on 27 copies traded, with 91 days of inventory on the board; PSA does not split this card’s population by finish, so no gem rate can be read for it.
