# Zangoose #14/100 — Sandstorm

## Summary

Zangoose is Hoenn's famous rival to Seviper, and Kagemaru Himeno was drawing for Pokémon from the earliest Base Set days, so his name carries real weight with longtime collectors. A holo in a modest set, it's a Gen III fan pick rather than a big chase slot. At a $39 modelled guide, with 3 copies traded in 30 days, this printing is almost entirely collector premium, since the same card plays for $0.11 out of Surging Sparks; PSA does not split this card’s population by finish, so no gem rate can be read for it.
