# Pelipper #38/149 — Sun & Moon

## Summary

Pelipper is a Hoenn Water-Flying type with a modest but steady fanbase, and Sun & Moon's base set made it an uncommon, a mid-tier pull that was never chased. Sumiyoshi Kizuki's name draws a little extra attention from illustrator collectors, though demand stays gentle. A $0.11 modelled guide with 4 copies traded in 30 days says bulk, and the tape reads as a floor forming near the lows, and the economics stop there: no PSA population is on file, and the same card plays for $0.05 out of Journey Together.
