Pokémon TCG Value Watch: Chilling Reign In December 2022

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 – Chilling Reign, which came out in June 2021, are doing now in December 2022.

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

1. Blaziken VMAX Alternate Art Secret Rare 201/198: $161.72
2. Galarian Moltres V Alternate Art 177/198: $131.69
3. Shiny Snorlax Gold Secret Rare 224/198: $78.77
4. Zeraora V Alternate Art 166/198: $65.95
5. Galarian Zapdos V Alternate Art 174/198: $59.11
6. Shadow Rider Calyrex VMAX Alternate Art Secret Rare 205/198: $57.15
7. Galarian Articuno V Alternate Art 170/198: $47.92
8. Ice Rider Calyrex VMAX Alternate Art Secret Rare 203/198: $46.74
9. Galarian Rapidash V Alternate Art 170/198: $44.26
10. Galarian Slowking V Alternate Art 179/198: $41.64
11. Blissey V Alternate Art 183/198: $34.75
12. Shadow Rider Calyrex V Alternate Art 172/198: $32.87
13. Tornadus V Alternate Art 185/198: $31.38
14. Klara Full Art Trainer Supporter 194/198: $27.42
15. Water Energy Gold Secret Rare 231/198: $23.80

The Blaziken VMAX Alternate Art Secret Rare is creeping up in value, but not to the extent of the Umbreon VMAX Alternate Art Secret Rare from Sword & Shield – Evolving Skies. This doesn't seem to be a card that is going to take off and go into the $300 or $400 range the way that the Eeveelution Alt Arts have the potential to hit, but it is certainly a card to watch so collectors don't miss their chance to get it.
