# Snorlax V #197/202 — Sword & Shield

## Summary

Snorlax V is a Kanto favorite whose sleepy bulk has made it a plush-shelf staple since Red and Blue, and its Swallow attack gave the V a durable, sustain-minded role in the format. As an Ultra Rare in the base Sword & Shield set, it was a genuine chase pull, which keeps demand steady. The modelled guide sits at $32, down 5% over 30 days on 76 copies traded, with 106 days of inventory on the board; the slab is the real edge, with PSA 10s at $250 and a 63% observed gem rate putting about $54 of expected profit per submission.
