# Delibird #21/109 — Team Rocket Returns

## Summary

Delibird is a Johto novelty Pokémon with a cult following, loved for being cheerfully impractical in the games. Its Poke-POWER let decks cycle a card each turn, a niche trick for casual builds, and the Rare slot in Team Rocket Returns keeps it mid-tier, with Yuka Morii's name adding quiet appeal. The modelled guide sits at $18, flat over 30 days on 13 copies traded, with 576 days of inventory on the board; a CGC 10 brings $80, 4.4 times raw, but PSA does not split this card’s population by finish, so no gem rate can be read for it.
