# Hoppip #57/109 — Team Rocket Returns

## Summary

Hoppip is a bulk common from Team Rocket Returns, a pull that fills binder pages rather than drives them. Its coin-flip survival Poke-Body is a charming quirk, and Kyoko Umemoto is a respected name among illustrators, so demand comes from Johto completionists and Grass-type fans. The modelled guide sits at $0.53, flat over 30 days on 40 copies traded, with 90 days of inventory on the board; a CGC 10 brings $19, 36 times raw, but PSA does not split this card’s population by finish, so no gem rate can be read for it.
