# Dark Arbok #2/82 — Team Rocket

## Summary

Dark Arbok was a mid-tier Rare from the Team Rocket set, pulled from the holo slot before Rocket's villains became a collecting theme of their own. Arita's name carries weight from the original Base Set art, and a Gen I snake with that Rocket stamp keeps nostalgic buyers interested. The modelled guide sits at $18, up 15% over 30 days on 77 copies traded, with 391 days of inventory on the board; PSA does not split this card’s population by finish, so no gem rate can be read for it, with original packs long past any pull-rate math.
