Pokémon TCG Value Watch: Brilliant Stars In April 2023

Pokémon TCG Value Watch: Brilliant Stars in April 2023 notes this Charizard and Arceus-themed expansion remaining relatively steady.

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 – Brilliant Stars, which came out in February 2022, are doing now in April 2023.

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

2. Sylveon VMAX Character Super Rare TG15/TG30: $18.33

4. Umbreon V Character Super Rare TG23/TG30: $15.57
5. Mimikyu VMAX Character Super Rare TG17/TG30: $13.85

There were very few shifts in the market for Sword & Shield – Brilliant Stars this month. The chase card of the Charizard V Alt Art keeps going up and down but only by a few dollars. I wonder if we will ever see a precipitous dip.
