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: Scarlet & Violet – Paldea Evolved, which came out in June 2023, are doing now in August 2024.

The last time I checked in on was Pokémon TCG: Scarlet & Violet – Paldea Evolved, and the market has shifted in the past few months for the set's top card. Magikarp Illustration Rare lost over $25 in value, but still remains one of the most valuable cards of this era. Chi-Yu ex Special Illustration Rare also dropped by $10, almost a third of its former value. For the most part, the rest of the cards in this set remained steady.
