The highly anticipated Pokémon 151 TCG set is here, featuring reprints of the original 151 Pokémon with stunning new artwork and holofoil treatment chase cards. This set is a must-have for both players and collectors, offering over 200 cards with exciting features like Master Ball mirror holofoil, secret illustration rares, and hyper rare gold etched cards. The English version of the Pokémon 151 TCG set is set to release on Sept. 22, and it is expected to shake up the market with several cards projected to be valued at $50 to $100 and above.
Each card in the Pokémon 151 TCG set is a reprint, aimed at making hard-to-find cards more accessible and affordable. The Pokémon Company has gone the extra mile to make this set appealing to collectors by including special treatments that elevate the chase cards from their regular counterparts.
As we approach the launch of Pokémon 151, the most valuable card is the Pikachu with the Master Ball holofoil treatment, currently valued at approximately $310. These prices are based on secondary market values from regions where the TCG has already been released, such as Japan and other Asian regions.
The highest-priced card from any of the Scarlet and Violet sets, according to TCGPlayer, is the special illustration rare Iono from Paldea Evolved, which is worth around $100. Following closely behind is the special illustration of Charizard ex from Obsidian Flames, valued at approximately $72 on the secondary market.
Prices drop significantly after Charizard and Iono, with Miriam from the base set valued at around $40 and Chien-Pao ex from Paldea Evolved priced at approximately $27.
It is expected that prices of Scarlet and Violet Pokémon TCG cards will decrease after the launch of Pokémon 151, although the extent of the drop remains uncertain. Nevertheless, these iconic collectible classics are highly sought after by fans. With the limited availability of high-priced singles on the secondary market, it is possible that the most valuable Scarlet and Violet cards in the future will come from the Pokémon 151 TCG set.
