# Omastar #76/181 — Team Up

## Summary

Omastar is a Kanto fossil Pokémon with a devoted following from the Helix Fossil days, and kirisAki is a respected illustrator, though I'll leave the art unclaimed. Fossil Bind could squeeze Item-heavy decks when behind, but as a mid-tier Rare Stage 2 it stayed a niche pick rather than a chase. The modelled guide sits at $1.35, up 4% over 30 days on 8 copies traded, with 263 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.
