# Pupitar #048/131 — Prismatic Evolutions

## Summary

Pupitar is a Stage 1 common, the middle rung of a Larvitar line fans love for ending in Tyranitar, and nobody pulls it for its own sake. In a set this heavily chased, it fills binder pages while Shigenori Negishi's long-running Pokémon artwork gives completionists a quiet reason to keep one. The modelled guide sits at $0.15, up 114% over 30 days on 377 copies traded, with 595 days of inventory on the board; a PSA 10 guides at $31, 209 times raw, but PSA does not split this card’s population by finish, so no gem rate can be read for it.
