# Sceptile #10/100 — Stormfront

## Summary

Sceptile has always been a Hoenn favorite, the starter that fans of Ruby and Sapphire still defend, and Energy Trans made it a real Grass engine in Diamond & Pearl formats. A holo rare here, drawn by Suwama Chiaki, sits comfortably as a solid mid-tier pull. The modelled guide sits at $65 with 20 copies traded in 30 days; PSA does not split this card’s population by finish, so no gem rate can be read for it.
