Article Summary

  • Track the latest Pokémon TCG card values for Scarlet & Violet – Journey Together in July 2025.
  • Lillie's Clefairy ex Special Illustration Rare leads with the highest market value despite recent drops.
  • Salamence ex and Iono's Bellibolt ex Special Illustration Rares are top chases in the current market.
  • The collector market is heating up again, impacting prices for both new and past Pokémon TCG sets.

The Pokémon TCG is an ever-changing and unpredictable market. Over the past few months, we've seen a huge surge of renewed interest in the hobby. Of course, there was massive hype during the Sword & Shield era around Alternate Arts, but the beginning of the Scarlet & Violet era saw a marked cool-down in the hobby. Now, it seems that the collector's market is going into hyper-drive once more, as attention to both current Scarlet & Violet sets as well as Sword & Shield sets soars. Every month, I will do an installment of this series, Pokémon TCG Value Watch, to track the collector's market of modern sets. 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. Should you buy singles or packs? Is that chase card obtainable? Let's find out. Today, let's see how the cards of Pokémon TCG: Scarlet & Violet – Journey Together, which came out in March 2025, are doing now in July 2025.

Lillie is an undeniably popular character, but thankfully, the hobby isn't currently going through one of its strange trainer card phases that always boosts the value of Lillie cards. Lillie's Clefairy ex Special Illustration Rare, which was always going to be the chase card, took a considerable loss this month but is still far and away the top card of the set. It's N's Zoroark ex Special Illustration Rare that truly fell this month, taking a $20 loss.
