# Grapploct #113/202 — Sword & Shield

## Summary

Grapploct is a Galar octopus with a cult following among Fighting-type fans, and its Octolock lock-down attack gave it a distinct playstyle in the opening Sword & Shield format. As a plain Rare in the base set, it's a mid-tier pull and a modest collector favorite rather than a chase slot. A $0.23 modelled guide, up 10% over 30 days on 9 copies traded, says bulk, with 570 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 $0.14 out of Surging Sparks.
