# Machop #74/144 — Skyridge

## Summary

Machop is a Skyridge common, a late-run bulk pull from the set that closed out the WOTC era, and nobody cracked a pack hoping for it. Miki Tanaka illustrated it, and demand comes from Gen I Fighting-type fans and completists, not from tournament play. The modelled guide sits at $23 with 4 copies traded in 30 days; PSA does not split this card’s population by finish, so no gem rate can be read for it, with original packs long past any pull-rate math.
