Pokémon TCG Value Watch: Surging Sparks in November 2024

Our monthly Pokémon TCG Value Watch series observes the new Pikachu-themed set Scarlet & Violet - Surging Sparks in November 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: Scarlet & Violet – Surging Sparks, which came out in November 2024, are doing now a few weeks after release.

Here are the top valued cards of Pokémon TCG: Scarlet & Violet – Surging Sparks with market values observed on TCGPlayer as of this writing:

This is the first time that we are presenting the value of Pokémon TCG: Scarlet & Violet – Surging Sparks. The biggest card of the set, Pikachu ex Special Illustration Rare, debuts with a huge value of $468.78. Pikachu has unseated Greninja ex Special Illustration Rare from Scarlet & Violet – Twilight Masquerade as the most expensive hit of the entire Paldean era. Let's see if this card ends up dropping down in value to a more standard chase card like the Pikachu from Sword & Shield – Vivid Voltage or if it becomes the Umbreon VMAX Alt Art of the era.
