# Professor Kukui #148/149 — Sun & Moon

## Summary

Kukui was the Alola professor who battled as hard as he taught, and this Supporter reflected that, pairing a draw with a damage bump that made it a regular in the opening Sun & Moon format. Ultra Rare treatment on a Trainer gives Mizutani's work an unusually collectible slot. The modelled guide sits at $9.57, up 17% over 30 days on 47 copies traded, with 80 days of inventory on the board; a PSA 10 brings $113, 12 times raw, but a 38% gem rate against $85 of fees makes grading a losing trade.
