# Thwackey #012/202 — Sword & Shield

## Summary

Thwackey is the middle stage of the Galar Grass starter line, and it has never been the one fans pick, since the affection goes to Grookey and the Rillaboom finale. Mizutani is a long-running Pokémon illustrator, but an uncommon like this mostly fills out Galar starter binders. A $0.08 modelled guide, up 100% over 30 days on 15 copies traded, says bulk, with 528 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.
