# Snorlax GX #SM05 — SM Black Star Promos

## Summary

Snorlax GX comes from the first wave of Sun & Moon promos, a Gen I giant with a devoted following and a nap-and-hit design that rewarded patient decks. Promo status means it was never a pack pull, so demand rests on Snorlax's popularity and 5ban Graphics, a studio many collectors know. The modelled guide sits at $34, up 26% over 30 days on 207 copies traded, with only 22 days of inventory on the board; the slab is the real edge, with PSA 10s at $2,450 and a 16% observed gem rate putting about $260 of expected profit per submission, and the slabbed population is growing 1% a month, faster than 86% of tracked cards.
