# Palkia #24/73 — Shining Legends

## Summary

Palkia carries the weight of a Sinnoh box legend, and its pull with fans runs on that mythology of space and the Dialga rivalry. Within Shining Legends, a plain Rare sits a tier below the shiny chase slots, so demand rests on the Pokémon and on Eske Yoshinobu's name. The modelled guide sits at $0.52, up 2% over 30 days on 46 copies traded, with 299 days of inventory on the board; a CGC 10 brings $37, 70 times raw, but PSA does not split this card’s population by finish, so no gem rate can be read for it.
