# Grotle #31/95 — Unleashed

## Summary

Grotle is the middle step of the Sinnoh starter line, and Turtwig's loyal following gives even its in-between form a small collector base. An Uncommon in Unleashed was a mid-tier pull, so it earns its price from Gen IV nostalgia, not scarcity or tournament weight. At a $1.37 modelled guide, with 4 copies traded in 30 days, 87% of this printing’s price is collector premium, since the same card plays for $0.18 out of Temporal Forces; PSA does not split this card’s population by finish, so no gem rate can be read for it.
