Agree 1000% on needing a good gengar alt art. Something spooky / scary. Need one for Darkrai and Hydreigon too, dark Pokemon don't get enough love and have amazing alt art potential!
One of my favorite pieces of content if not my favorite that I've seen on the illustrious PokeVault channel. Very cool concept and excellently executed.
4:30 I think Pokémon did it green because of the original games Fire Red and Leaf Green, and that is Red's rival in the games. But his name can be anything in the old games if yall remember. So the Pokémon company just named the Card Red and Blue because it was what the Pokémon Anime did. Thx for all the amazing Videos Poké Vault! :)
Great episode and I think your 110% correct. I grabbed just 1 of the new Arceus v boxes the other day and opened the cosmic pack and pulled the blastoise and piplup in 1 pack!!!! So now cosmic is just stuck in my head as my next investment ... especially while I have the chance right now with the price dope for this short period bc I believe it will be going back up sooner than later for sure! Great video Sean!!!!! Chuck Norris is still icing his thumbs from his last battle with u! Hahahaha
Really interesting content brother. Great to look at the potential that sealed products could have in terms of value retention and growth over medium to long term. I'm a little bit of a watch enthusiast/collector and recetly got back into Pokémon collecting. Looking at your content it reminds me a lot about the similarities in my own approach to watch buying, their value retention and what could affect future pricing and desirability. There are a lot of common investment theory here between both asset classes. There are soo many transferable/similar metrics. Granted they are both very different asset classes (people in the comments, please don't shoot me down for calling pokemon cards assets - but they most definitely are although we all enjoy them). But the same as watches which are luxury items but also collected for the "love" of watches, they are still assets. I feel the same can be applied to pokémon cards/sealed products which can be collected for the love of the tcg but also have value retention and/or price increase in mind. Its nice to be able to buy a sealed booster box for lets say $600 and 6-7 years later its trading at $1500 to $2000. The plus point of collecting sealed TCG products in an informed way as this video is showing is that they are far more affordable than say gold, silver, watches or real estate. It makes it soo much more accessible - only if you know what you're doing of course. Cheers buddy, keep these kind of videos coming. Appreciate it
That Zard & Braixen GX Secret Rare is no joke. That's a pretty card. That Professor Oak card too, your right. The nostalgia is real with that one. Same here brotha, Cosmic! Cheers!
Hot take: in the next boom of Pokémon, the new top chase cards are gonna be Waifu cards and not Charizards or alt arts. Thus confirming we all love the
Great comparison video. If I were to choose I would say cosmic. You know I already have the Gengar alt art, and the only other card I need from team up is the magicarp and Wailord. I think cosmic will have the better cards in the long run because they have more FF/OG pokemon. Keep Dancing!
I agree with you! Cosmic Eclipse has some amazing cards and with their price dropping a little from the reprint, its a good time to get in now before it goes away again.
i got one of the charizard and braixen rainbows on a $5 pull game on whatnot and ended up pulling it from a dollar general cosmic pack lol ... the highlight of my collecting so far since ive been back in it
Can't believe i pulled the Reshiram - Zekrom tag team full art from a single pokeball tin. Definitely a memorable pull, absolutely one of my top cards. Was already ordering singles of cosmic so to actually pull that one was astounding. One day I'll move on to trying to collect more Team Up as well.
If anyone reads this comment and knows anything about the Pokémon economy, do you believe the prices of sun and moon era especially the later sets will lower in value this upcoming holiday? Because of recession and other factors or will it only affect recent sets and vintage sets.
Some sick sick cards, i am not a big fan tho of rainbow cards, but the rest of the cards u highlighted were dope ! love these two sets, all that is from the old cartoon are so sick !
I know the artworks play a huge part, so I was wondering your thoughts about most of the modern trainer gallery cards being like $2-$5 each. Obviously it’ll heavily depend on which card it is, but I feel like these have to eventually shoot up in price over the years considering how beautiful a lot of them are.
I think if we keep our expectations tapered on new product and be realistic there could be some major Gaines to be had. Any trainer gallery card at 2 to 5 dollars long-term I think is a good play
Would you say keeping a full art set of sealed packs worth holding onto for team up? I got a full art set of team up and evolutions that I was gonna get graded and hold onto for a long time. My local card shop had a booster box of cosmic that's been sitting there not opened for like $275 that I've been looking to snatch up
Any advise on purchasing semi-old cards? E-bay prices are nuts. Any other places or are those just the best indications of Market prices? Right now opening XY/S&M packs almost seems financially irresponsible with the sealed product pricing murdering the individual card prices.
Team Up is such a great set. As a fellow Gengar fanboy, that set fires me up. Cosmic is a set that is going to skyrocket down the road. Eyyyyyyy….the THICCness got a shoutout!!
Nov-1-2024 Bought a pack of Cosmic Eclipse for $22 USD. Got it from a friend of mine. Think I'll put these back an revisit them in about 5 years hopefully they'll keep going up up up! 😆Cha CHING!
I think Team up takes it for me (art wise), though like you said the hype is building and it is getting out of affordability range. Good call on separating investment though!
As far as my favorite artworks personally I like team up much more. But as far as the amount of money to be made off them I think cosmic wins. I even like the pack art on team ups a lot! I love how everyone is different
My final thoughts are Sean should be designing cards and giving us gold. Compared to this new age, every day objects with eyeballs, let's call it a Pokémon b.s.

Oh hey Sean now do a video on unbroken bonds and unified minds which is better? Love the vids man keep up the great work
🤜🏻🤛🏻
I agree with you! Cosmic Eclipse has some amazing cards and with their price dropping a little from the reprint, its a good time to get in now before it goes away again.
I'm looking into these two sets but atm all I can afford is single packs as 900 a booster is ridiculous
i got one of the charizard and braixen rainbows on a $5 pull game on whatnot and ended up pulling it from a dollar general cosmic pack lol ... the highlight of my collecting so far since ive been back in it
Damn! That’s amazing
I thought the Vmax Alt Art of gengar in Fusion Strikes counted lol. But yeah, definitely agree with cosmic and I'd absolutely love to own some packs!
Can't believe i pulled the Reshiram - Zekrom tag team full art from a single pokeball tin. Definitely a memorable pull, absolutely one of my top cards. Was already ordering singles of cosmic so to actually pull that one was astounding. One day I'll move on to trying to collect more Team Up as well.
Gengar has been my #1 since 1999 lol, come he is the 1st OG ghost pokemon how could you not love him
That Reshi Zek is such a gorgeous card
I recently just added a cosmic eclipse and an xy evolutions to my collection.
the artwork on these cards are just amazing
Cosmic is super cracked out dude I think even at 500 a booster and with the reprint of loose packs bringing price down now is the time to get cosmic
Sabrina and Erika r pretty nice. Never seen these before.
Cosmic to the moon, Vault to the moon, we're all trying to get to the moon. Lol Another good informational video man!
Pulled the gengar and mimikyu alt art from a dollar general dragonite blister😁
I got the braixen/charizard in one of those $1 store 3 card packs
Great video I have a good amount of cosmic eclipse but it’s hard not to open it after looking at these beautiful artworks
Cosmic is awesome and we pulled the Arceus alt and it’s a beauty. Getting a booster box of of cosmic is on my #1 Pokémon list to acquire
Cosmic eclipse is by far my favorite set, the artwork is just beautiful. That pikachu with red card is my favorite card of all time!
Facts!

Having just loaded up on some Cosmic Eclipse earlier this week, I sure enjoyed the ending of this video 👌🏼
Would you say keeping a full art set of sealed packs worth holding onto for team up? I got a full art set of team up and evolutions that I was gonna get graded and hold onto for a long time. My local card shop had a booster box of cosmic that's been sitting there not opened for like $275 that I've been looking to snatch up
I would say big yes to both. Especially that cosmic box. I’ll buy that thing if you don’t lol
I found a tin that had a cosmic in it and got a alolan ninetales but i like tag team better. I just can't afford any lol
Enjoyed the video Thanks 😊

You might wanna try our discord. Link is in the description. I see those cards being sold all the time
Downloaded and joined. Looks cool. Thanks for the heads up.
Pulled that charizard and braxien 2 days ago!! Best one ive pulled yet!
👍🏻👍🏻
What about the alt art gengar from fusion strike?!
I was thinking of one that wasn’t a Gigantamax
@@PokeVault8 oh yeah we definitely need one of those!
u know what else would be awesome...dark pokemon alt arts...would be sick
That’s actually a good idea. Dare and Light alt arts
I just pulled that Red & Blue trainer card 2 days ago its pretty cool
LETS GO!
I also love Cosmic Eclipse more, the artwork on these cards are just amazing
Wow, some of those cards sure bring back memories. Loved the video!!!
Gengar just had a pretty sweet alt art in fusion strike FWIW
Yeah I was just thinking of one that wasn’t a Gigantamax version
@@PokeVault8 good point. The V alts do hit harder typically.
Team Up is such a great set. As a fellow Gengar fanboy, that set fires me up. Cosmic is a set that is going to skyrocket down the road. Eyyyyyyy….the THICCness got a shoutout!!
