# Nanu #179/181 — Team Up

## Summary

Nanu is the Alola Kahuna with a gruff, reluctant-mentor streak that has kept him a quiet favorite among fans of Sun & Moon. Hitoshi Ariga, a longtime Pokémon artist, handles this full-art Supporter, and its Darkness-recovery effect gave it real utility, so shelves and decks both noticed. The modelled guide sits at $15, up 6% over 30 days on 14 copies traded, with 132 days of inventory on the board; a CGC 10 brings $140, 9.3 times raw, but a 31% gem rate against $45 of fees makes grading a losing trade, and the slabbed population has not grown in 30 days, slower than 85% of tracked cards.
