# Energy Switch #162/202 — Sword & Shield

## Summary

Energy Switch is a long-running Trainer utility that has rarely been more than a fringe inclusion in competitive lists. As an uncommon in the opening set of its block, it sits comfortably in bulk territory, and Toyste Beach's name is the only extra thread for completists. A $0.19 modelled guide, down 10% over 30 days on 36 copies traded, says bulk, with 133 days of inventory on the board, and the economics stop there: no PSA population is on file.
