The Pokémon Trading Card Game is an ever-changing and unpredictable market. Over the last two years we have seen a renewed interest in the hobby due to a number of factors, including the 25th anniversary, strong Sword and shield-era sets with stunning alternate arts, influencers, box breaks, COVID-19 lockdown making people find new hobbies, and more. For a while, sets and cards that were readily available quickly became hard to find. Now that the hype is dying down, let’s see where modern sets stand. Each month I will publish an installment of this series, Pokémon Trading Card Game Value Watch. This series is not financial advice, but a way to help collectors know the evolution of a card’s availability so that Pokémon Trading Card Game Completists like me know when to strike. Today we want to see how the cards from Pokémon Trading Card Game: Sword & Shield – Celestial Evolutionthat came out in August 2021 will now do so in August 2024.

Umbreon VMAX Alternate Art is down a bit this month. However, at its astonishing current value of $843.52, the $50 loss this month is hardly a negative. Similar losses are seen for Rayquaza VMAX Alternate Art, Leafeon VMAX Alternate Art, and Glaceon VMAX Alternate Art. Now that we are three years after this set’s release this month, it remains a modern marvel of Pokémon Trading Card Game Collect that so many cards in this set can not only reach values ​​above $100 and $200, but also hold them. Any of the top ten cards would be an absolutely powerful chase card in the Scarlet & Violet Era… but in this Sword and shield set, they are just all together, turning packs of Evolving Skies in gold.
