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 October 2024.
Here are the top valued cards of Pokémon TCG: Scarlet & Violet – Paldea Evolved with market values observed on TCGPlayer as of this writing:

The mighty Magikarp Illustration Rare, one of the most surprising chase cards of this era, is slightly down this month, dropping by $9. Iono Special Illustration Rare, the card that briefly ballooned in value and sparked another wave of interest in female-led Trainer Supporter cards, remains steady but lower in value than expected, considering how the Japanese equivalent of the card became a huge chase. Raichu Illustration Rare is crashing, losing about a quarter of its value this month after it looked like it was in for a Magikarp-esque spike.
