Pokémon TCG Value Watch: Battle Styles In February 2023
Pokémon TCG Value Watch: Battle Styles in February 2023 notes a small dip in the Tyranitar V Alt Art, but not enough to get excited.
The Pokémon TCG is an ever-changing and unpredictable market. Over the past two years, we've seen renewed interest in the hobby due to a number of factors, including the 25th Anniversary, strong Sword & Shield-era sets featuring stunning Alternate Arts, influencers, box breaks, COVID-19 lockdown pushing people to find hobbies, and more. For a time, sets and cards that were readily available quickly became difficult to find. Now that the hype is settling down, let's see where modern sets stand. Every month, I will do an installment of this series, Pokémon TCG Value Watch. This series is not financial advice but is rather a way to help collectors know the trajectory of a card's availability so that Pokémon TCG completionists like myself know when to strike. Today, let's see how the cards of Sword & Shield – Battle Styles, which came out in March 2021, are doing now in February 2023.
Here are the top valued cards of Pokémon TCG: Sword & Shield – Battle Styles with market values observed on TCGPlayer as of this writing:

Since the last spike that the Tyranitar V Alternate Art saw that pushed it back to being a $100+ chase card, we have not seen many notable changes to Sword & Shield – Battle Styles. I am mostly just keeping an eye on that Tyranitar here, and this month has seen a slight drop but nothing to give us any indication of it returning to where it was.
