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 Pokémon TCG: Sword & Shield – Lost Origin, which came out in September 2022, are doing now in June 2024.
Here are the top valued cards of Pokémon TCG: Sword & Shield – Lost Origin with market values observed on TCGPlayer as of this writing:
- Giratina V Alternate Art 186/196: $398.25
- Aerodactyl V Alternate Art 180/196: $123.76
- Rotom V Alternate Art 186/196: $40.80
- Galarian Perrserker V Alternate Art 184/196: $20.90
- Giratina VSTAR Rainbow Rare 201/196: $20.87
- Giratina VSTAR Gold Secret Rare 212/196: $10.31
- Hisuian Goodra VSTAR Rainbow Rare 202/196: $8.19
- Lost Vacuum Gold Secret Rare 217/196: $7.46
- Aerodactyl VSTAR Rainbow Rare 199/196: $10.62
- Kyurem VMAS Rainbow Rare 197/196: $7.01
This Pokémon TCG expansion includes a Trainer Gallery subset. The top cards of this subset are:
- Pikachu VMAX Character Super Rare TG17/TC30: $44.08
- Pikachu V Character Super Rare TG16/TC30: $27.15
- Pikachu VMAX Black & Gold TG29/TC30: $6.65
- Mew VMAX Black & Gold TG30/TC30: $6.13
- Boss's Orders Full Art Trainer Supporter TG24/TC30: $5.99
Big drop! These $400-500 value points aren't possible long-term for most cards, so we have seen this set's chase card ascend, halt, and then drop. Giratina V Alternate Art is still an absolute monster, as a card that can lose $65 of value in a month and still be at almost $400.
