Chi-Yu #1004

Chi-Yu is the Ruinous Pokemon — a Dark/Fire-type legendary from the Treasures of Ruin quartet, an ancient malevolent spirit sealed within a special bead whose eyes burn with hypnotic blue flames that enslave any who meet its gaze — and a Paldea Evolved high-number at $52 makes it the most expensive of the four Ruinous quartet legendaries and one of the premier grails of the entire Gen 9 TCG wave.
