# Sableye V #194/202 — Sword & Shield

## Summary

Sableye is a Hoenn cult favorite, and its V form gave Darkness decks Trainer recursion through Lode Search during the early Sword & Shield format. Eske Yoshinob's name draws illustration collectors, while the Ultra Rare slot keeps it a respectable mid-tier pull. The modelled guide sits at $12, down 19% over 30 days on 58 copies traded, with 101 days of inventory on the board; a PSA 10 brings $133, 11 times raw, but a 69% gem rate against $85 of fees makes grading a losing trade.
