The Pokémon TCG is an ever-changing and unpredictable market. Over the past few months, we've seen a huge surge of renewed interest in the hobby. Of course, there was massive hype during the Sword & Shield era around Alternate Arts, but the beginning of the Scarlet & Violet era saw a marked cool-down in the hobby. Now, it seems that the collector's market is going into hyper-drive once more, as attention to both current Scarlet & Violet sets as well as Sword & Shield sets soars. Every month, I will do an installment of this series, Pokémon TCG Value Watch, to track the collector's market of modern sets. 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. Should you buy singles or packs? Is that chase card obtainable? Let's find out. Today, let's see how the cards of Pokémon TCG: Scarlet & Violet – Temporal Forces, which came out in March 2024, are doing now, one year later in March 2025.

While the set's chase card Raging Bolt ex Special Illustration Rare did not see a huge jump this month, it did notably surpass the $100 mark. The biggest change this month was Morty's Conviction Special Illustration Rare Trainer Supporter, and I must say… I told you guys to keep an eye on this one. This is a Secret Rare with Gengar on it. Granted, it's Gengar next to a less-than-popular Trainer, but still — I've been saying watch out for this card to skyrocket since it came out, and this month saw it almost double in value. Do not underestimate the big, popular Pokémon like Gengar, even when the card they appear on is not their own.
