# Ferrothorn #131/202 — Sword & Shield

## Summary

Ferrothorn is a Gen V Steel and Grass tank that earned real respect in competitive Pokémon, and that reputation lends this Stage 1 more goodwill than a typical uncommon gets. Midori Harada is a long-serving illustrator, and as a mid-tier pull in the base set it sits well away from the chase slots. A $0.07 modelled guide, up 250% over 30 days on 80 copies traded, says bulk, with 263 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 $0.06 out of White Flare.
