# Drapion #122/202 — Sword & Shield

## Summary

Drapion is a Sinnoh Dark/Poison scorpion with a steady if modest following, and this base-set Rare was a mid-tier pull in a huge launch set, never the chase slot. Masakazu Fukuda is a long-serving illustrator, so completionists and Sinnoh fans keep demand quietly alive. A $0.24 modelled guide, up 4% over 30 days on 10 copies traded, says bulk, with 1,239 days of inventory on the board, and the economics stop there: PSA does not split this card’s population by finish, so no gem rate can be read for it, and the same card plays for $0.05 out of Perfect Order.
