# Hariyama #8/109 — Ruby & Sapphire

## Summary

Hariyama is a Hoenn sumo wrestler that fans of the Gen III games have always rated for its sturdy, no-nonsense design. As a holo rare in the opening Ruby & Sapphire set, it sat a tier below the ex chase cards, so demand comes from Hoenn nostalgia and completists rather than scarcity. At a $16 modelled guide, with 7 copies traded in 30 days, this printing is almost entirely collector premium, since the same card plays for $0.20 out of Mega Evolution; PSA does not split this card’s population by finish, so no gem rate can be read for it.
