# Shelgon #56/108 — Roaring Skies

## Summary

Shelgon is the awkward middle step between Bagon and Salamence, and Hoenn fans tend to remember it fondly for the payoff it leads to. In Roaring Skies, a set built around Dragon-type support, an Uncommon like this was a filler pull, so demand comes from sui completists and Dragon collectors. A $0.33 modelled guide, up 3% over 30 days on 7 copies traded, says bulk, with only 20 days of inventory on the board, and the economics stop there: a PSA 10 guides at $34, 103 times raw, but PSA does not split this card’s population by finish, so no gem rate can be read for it.
