# Ursaring #18/115 — Unseen Forces

## Summary

Ursaring is a Johto favorite with a loyal following, and Atsuko Nishida, one of the original Pokémon card illustrators, always draws collectors who prize her early work. Intimidating Ring was a disruptive Poke-Body in a Basic-heavy era, but as a mid-tier Rare it was never a chase pull. The modelled guide sits at $27 with 7 copies traded in 30 days; a CGC 10 brings $166, 6.1 times raw, but PSA does not split this card’s population by finish, so no gem rate can be read for it.
