Pokémon TCG Value Watch: Battle Styles In March 2023

Pokémon TCG Value Watch: Battle Styles in March 2023 sees the Tyranitar V Alternate Art chase card retain value after a previous spike.

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 March 2023.

Here are the top valued cards of Pokémon TCG: Sword & Shield – Battle Styles with market values observed on TCGPlayer as of this writing:

1. Tyranitar V Alternate Art 155/163: $102.27
2. Rapid Strike Urshifu VMAX Alternate Art 170/163: $70.90
3. Empoleon V Alternate Art 146/163: $38.47

14. Corviknight VMAX Rainbow Rare 171/163: $9.91
15. Tyranitar V Full Art 154/163: $8.97

While Sword & Shield – Battle Styles remains dramatically underrated by Pokémon TCG fans in the community, this is no slouch of a set. Many cards are holding decent value, with the Tyranitar V Alt Art now holding strong after a surge that put it over $100 a while back. While packs remain readily available, this is certainly a set to watch.
