# Gardevoir EX #78/114 — Steam Siege

## Summary

Gardevoir has been a Hoenn favorite since Ruby and Sapphire, and its Fairy-type fanbase never really left. Ultra Rare EX cards were the chase slot in an XY-era set, so Eske Yoshinob's illustration sits among the pulls collectors actually hunted for. The modelled guide sits at $5.84, up 17% over 30 days on 50 copies traded, with 120 days of inventory on the board; a PSA 10 brings $153, 26 times raw, but a 38% gem rate against $85 of fees makes grading a losing trade.
