# Rayquaza #XY141 — XY Black Star Promos

## Summary

Rayquaza sits near the top of Hoenn's fan ranking, the sky-dwelling guardian of Gen III that collectors chase in almost any form. As a Black Star promo it was a handed-out or event-linked release rather than a booster pull, so demand rests on the Pokémon's pull and Masakazu Fukuda's name rather than rarity. At a $73 modelled guide, with 36 copies traded in 30 days, this printing is almost entirely collector premium, since the same card plays for $0.37 out of Ascended Heroes; PSA has slabbed 535 of these and only 9 are 10s, a 2% gem rate that makes the raw-to-gem gap the entire trade.
