Pokémon TCG Value Watch: Lost Origin In May 2024

Our monthly Pokémon TCG Value Watch series observes the Lost Zone-themed set Scarlet & Violet - Lost Origin in April 2024.

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 – Rebel Clash, which came out in May 2020, are doing now in May 2024.

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

1. Giratina V Alternate Art 186/196: $463.06

We are seeing the Umbreon-ification of Giratina V Alternate Art in a major way. Just this month, this card has increased $150 in value. Both this and the Umbreon VMAX Alternate Art from Sword & Shield – Evolving Skies are becoming all-time iconic chase cards. Notably, Aerodactyl V Alternate Art also jumped $40 in value while Rotom V Alternate Art increased by $10. The Trainer Gallery is also seeing big jumps with Pikachu VMAX Character Super Rare increasing in value by $20.
