@Rakermoon Too much gummy bear style

[Professor Victini @ProfVictini]

@Kramaramb I have had quite some bad experiences with tcgplayer without being able to see the card condition. People often list NM with a LP card

[Professor Victini @ProfVictini]

Looks like I was underestimating the US price.

Some news about the Chinese Prismatic Eevee Premium box.

It can only be bought at original price 780RMB (~$115USD) if you have a Chinese mobile phone and get into the lottery system.

Only 5000 boxes available.

Looks like it will be at least $300 USD here in the US.

The only PSA-graded Misty’s Spirit is currently up for auction on eBay, with 4d 20h remaining. The current bid stands at $338.99.

I previously posted about the potential of this card, but I think the high PSA 10 price is mainly driven by its current rarity. As more copies surface, the price of this SR card will likely come down.

Raw card selling at around 40USD, mostly directly from Japan.

Would love to see how much the English version costs after the release though.

[Professor Victini @ProfVictini]

@PokemonDealsTCG Yes and it feels very heavy

[Professor Victini @ProfVictini]

I saw them on Ebay too, mostly under $2 so maybe get them directly?

[Professor Victini @ProfVictini]

Second time in a row I got all the four variations of Deoxys in a Chaos Rising booster bundle.

This seems to be a good set to keep, and ultra affordable right now, here’s perhaps <$2?

Let’s wait and see if the price will go up later as a common card set.

[Professor Victini @ProfVictini]

@PokeTCGAlerts You got it bro!

[Professor Victini @ProfVictini]

@hokutoo2 Wow there’s the Lose? Card!

[Professor Victini @ProfVictini]

@PokeTCGAlerts Thanks again @PokeTCGAlerts and @PokemonDealsTCG

[Professor Victini @ProfVictini]

@JapanTCGFinds I think a much better followed account here in US mentioned it a few days ago, and there was a buyout suddenly. I think price is now 2x -3x compared to when I posted

[Professor Victini @ProfVictini]

Posted about this card a few days ago, and seems people are finally noticing the card

[Professor Victini @ProfVictini]

This Influencer's Introduction card somehow has a similar vibe to those Imakuni's vintage cards:

1. Only exclusive in Japanese
2. Real person (from the very famous Japanese Youtuber Hikakin @hikakin )
3. Only acquirable through the CoroCiao magazine's 100 starter deck
4. There's the hit combo: Charizard x Ditto x Pikachu

The good thing is it's only sold at around $13-17 USD each, mostly directly from Japan on Ebay.

PSA10 is roughly at mid-$200 USD.

@MitsuhiroArita @JapanTCGFinds You are very much welcomed!

[Professor Victini @ProfVictini]

Here's a card I think worth a little more attention: Dragonair No.148 Base Set Japanese 1996 No Rarity

The best thing I found about this card is:
1. There's no rarity, i.e. belonging to the earliest print in October 1996
2. Elegant Dragonair under aurora
3. Drawn by @MitsuhiroArita
4. Gen 1
5. No.148, the last Pokemon in 1996 Japanese Base Set (Dragonite wasn't even available in the Base Set)
6. Low PSA pop.

Cons:
1. Dragonair generally has a smaller audience
2. Almost impossible to get a NM card
3. Price could fluctuate a lot

Need to beware that a lot of sellers are listing their cards as "no rarity" though, while they are not.

[Professor Victini @ProfVictini]

@eldorado_card_2 Gorgeous cards

[Professor Victini @ProfVictini]

@SKINSWukong Always hoping it to evolve as kid while watching Pokemon lol

[Professor Victini @ProfVictini]

@PokeTriggz at least looks like they are from the same forest

[Professor Victini @ProfVictini]

The top 4 cards in my collection. Anyone likes Victini as much too?

[Professor Victini @ProfVictini]

Not trolling, this is a real card.

The M-Sachiko EX (298/XY-P) was distributed at the Pokémon Card Game 20th Anniversary Countdown, and only 100 cards were given out.

Last sale on Ebay was about a year ago (July 26, 2025), PSA10, and it was sold at 14,900. Current PSA valuation at 18,930, but I doubt if anyone could even see this card on the market.

@PokemonRestocks @TCGplayer Not doing well recently. Best was IR and UR
