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, which came out in March 2023, are doing now in November 2023.
Here are the top valued cards of Pokémon TCG: Scarlet & Violet with market values observed on TCGPlayer as of this writing:
- Miriam Special Illustration Rare Trainer Supporter 251/198: $34.61
- Gardevoir ex Special Illustration Rare 245/198: $22.76
- Miraidon ex Special Illustration Rare 244/198: $21.36
- Rare Candy Gold Hyper Rare Trainer Item 256/198: $13.06
- Nest Ball Gold Hyper Rare Trainer Item 255/198: $12.79
- Koraidon ex Special Illustration Rare 247/198: $11.66
- Arven Special Illustration Rare Trainer Supporter 249/198: $10.82
- Miriam Full Art Trainer Supporter 238/198: $10.64
- Ralts Illustration Rare 211/198: $10.00
- Tera Gyarados ex Full Art 225/198: $9.02
- Arven Full Art Trainer Supporter 235/198: $8.68
- Kirlia Illustration Rare 212/198: $8.25
- Tera Arcanine ex Full Art 224/198: $7.48
- Miraidon ex Gold Hyper Rare 253/198: $7.48
- Penny Special Illustration Rare Trainer Supporter 252/198: $7.28
While this set stayed mostly the same in value, two cards that didn't rank previously have appeared out of nowhere: the Arven Special Illustration Rare Trainer Supporter and Arven Full Art Trainer Supporter. While I can't predict what caused this uptick in both Arven cards, they remain affordable if you want to lock them down now before they increase further.
