Pokémon TCG Value Report: Scarlet & Violet – April 2024 Edition

In April 2024, our Pokémon TCG Value Watch series focuses on the Generation One-themed cards from the special set Scarlet & Violet – 151.

The Pokémon TCG market is a dynamic and ever-changing landscape. Over the past couple of years, we’ve witnessed a resurgence in interest in the hobby, fueled by various factors such as the 25th Anniversary celebrations, the release of impressive Sword & Shield-era sets featuring captivating Alternate Arts, the influence of content creators, the popularity of box breaks, and the impact of the COVID-19 lockdown prompting individuals to seek out new hobbies. This surge in demand led to previously abundant sets and cards becoming scarce commodities almost overnight.

As the initial fervor begins to subside, it’s essential to assess the current state of modern sets. Hence, I’ll be providing monthly updates through the Pokémon TCG Value Watch series. It’s crucial to note that this series isn’t financial advice but rather serves as a resource to assist collectors, like myself, in understanding the availability trends of specific cards. This way, Pokémon TCG enthusiasts can make informed decisions about when to add sought-after cards to their collections.
