# Dark Dugtrio #6/82 — Team Rocket

## Summary

Dark Dugtrio is a Rare from the Team Rocket set, a mid-tier pull rather than a chase slot, and its Sinkhole power punished retreating, a fun trick in the Wizards era. Himeno's name and the Dark Pokémon theme keep nostalgic Gen I collectors interested. The modelled guide sits at $94 with 56 copies traded in 30 days, with 120 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.
