# Lairon #37/102 — Triumphant

## Summary

Lairon is a middle-stage Hoenn Steel type that rarely gets its own spotlight, and as a Triumphant uncommon it was the sort of pull that filled out a Metal deck rather than a binder. Kagemaru Himeno is among the longest-serving illustrators in the game, which gives completists a small reason to look. A $0.36 modelled guide, up 9% over 30 days on 3 copies traded, says bulk, with 209 days of inventory on the board, and the economics stop there: PSA does not split this card’s population by finish, so no gem rate can be read for it, and the same card plays for $0.16 out of Twilight Masquerade.
