Im putting all my eggs in one basket with crown zenith, I feel like its one of the sets that was always there for the longest and people never appreciated it enough since it was heavily printed, but once the supply runs out people will miss it and will want more of it for nostalgia.
Twilight and paldea evolved will be the most recent sets I'm investing in the scarlet and violet era so far. As far as SWSH era goes I'm stacking fusion strike, crown zenith and chillijg reign. Evolving skies is probably the best set we've ever had in pokemon the price will reflect that in the next 5-10 years if you can any spare cash sitting about I'd suggest to pick up anything SWSH it's only going to go up. Another great video bud keep up the hard work it's extremely refreshing to watch someone who actually knows what he's talking about.
Just began alt-investing in PokeMon cards. My background is in rare books and general reselling, but I'm so excited to be back in the PokeMon community!
@@pokeoz91 I'm so excited. I've had a Book channel for a few years and I just started a Pokemon channel. Your advice is great. A lot of bad information about alt-investing is out there, but as someone who's been in the game for forever -- you know your stuff!
Amazing video that really helps people new to the Pokevesting world (like me), be up to date about the modern era sets for sure!! Would love to hear your inputs on the upcoming Surging Sparks set coming in November or even Terastal Festival (which seems poised to be the next big big set with all the Eeveelutions)! Keep the awesome work!!
There is nothing to disagree with here. You brought up all valid arguments and honestly, I think your selection is perfect. Still wonder if Pia evolved had a Greninja or a crazy SIR Gerardos it would be no question be the best SV set set.
If Paldean Fates dodges a reprint then sleeping on the set is going to be a big regret for many people. Also has readily available booster bundles so storing/posting ETBs isnt an issue.
I agree. Seems like it’s the biggest sleeper set in the whole SV era. 2 big gen 1 chases, gen 3 chase, multiple baby shines from gen 1, nice trainers. It really is big.
Great vid! With how long it is I’d really like to see some chapter/video markers to help navigate! Also tier lists are kind of overplayed but it could definitely fit here :) Just to make it more fun and conclusive
I firmly believe in brilliant stars and paldea evolved, just ordered 2 more brilliant stars boxes this morning because I feel like I can’t ever seem to find them anywhere for a good price anymore. I’m still hopeful that paldea evolved will get a reprint so I can grab another box or 2 for a bit cheaper
Shrouded fable has sold out on Pokémon centre of triple packs in England & asda's in south dorset,england had at least 12 shrouded fable etbs @ £50 ,one is left! Someone's buying it or is it just underprinted!? Pokémon centre obsidian flames etb for the promo p/c stamped charmander has overtaken the 151 p/c snorlax promo too value wise & collectability
My take on Paldean fates: This set is almost impossible to complete as a collection because of the number of secret rares and shiny pokemon. This makes it a good investment. The 'Shiny Hunting' content out there is intense and I expect collectors to be chasing many cards to complete the set for a long time. I've decided to invest in this set rather than collect. Just picked up a Paldean Fates ETB for $59 and a Booster Box for $45. That's a good price for an ETB in Australia. Put it away and forget about it. A small investment but I'm hoping for a reasonable return say in 10 years or so.
The theme of the whole SV era is us getting a lot of cool art and no real chase cards. They keep missing obvious great ideas to the point that it almost seems intentional. Like your point about an SIR Gyarados and an IR pikachu and SIR Raichu. And getting sir promos in shrouded fable when none of the other SIR’s look good at all haha
And I’m not hating on the era by any means. I think it’s been amazing. I just feel like it’s crazy they keep failing to do obvious things and not giving us big chase cards
My son is getting into pokemon as i was back in tje day when 1st edition was out....my problem is all these sites including amazon have reviews about packs being tampered with....any suggestions of a reputable place to buy from?? Thanks
Ive been buying booster boxes since i was 16. Sealed never even tried to open none of them though temptation is there like an addict looking for its next fix. Though i do buy packs and safe my favs in my binders.
Agree with you my friend crown zenith has some absolutely amazing cards along with it being the last yellow border set my bet would be in 5-10 years its gonna be one of the most valuable sets
Great video! I will have to respectfully disagree with a couple of things. 1. Crown zenith as 3.5. if astral radiance is 4 (which I agree with) then CZ should be there. Yes it was heavily printed but so was evolving skies. The price just hasn't caught up to ES levels... Yet. Isn't that the whole point of the investing? The set is a banger set. Pull rates make it enjoyable and the art top to bottom in the gallerian Gallery is amazing. The GG has legendaries from at least 5 generations: 1, 2, 3, 4, 8. It is stacked! 2. S&V base started the IR and SIR era. It has the first 2 legendaries of Gen 9 in SIR form. This gen is the generation the kids today will know as their OG. No Ash and his gang from this generation in the anime going forward. This is a new defining era and if you are looking to invest it is important to look down the road and anticipate what the money will follow. Same reason I believe in Paldea evolved should be high. But that's it. I agree with all of the others. The alt arts and illustration versions are a defining moment for pokemon cards for the better. I think they saved the pokemon card collecting. We are in a golden era of pokemon cards
How good a set is isn’t base off only on value. 25th celebration was good because of all the OG reprint of sets back in the day. Celebration for me is easily an investable set. More like 3.5-4 for me. If this set had another 10-15 extra hits it would’ve been a super good set.
I want to start collecting Pokémon card with my grandson I don’t know anything about Pokémon cards what would you start with for fun an a little investment
I feel the same way about all the tricks that pokemon missed. You should work for them, and fix these issues please! Like the Latios and Latias should have both been exs
151, paldean fates, crown zenith all have booster bundles which could really be as much of or more of a play than booster boxes long term imo. Not as much to buy in, small and easy to store.
Paldean Fates will be huge. It’s less printed than Shining Fates and everyone is scared to invest because of how bad Shining Fates did. This one will blow up!
@@pokeoz91yes and no. Shining Fates was printed into the ground, true. BUT it barely had any cards people cared about. Really just 1. PF has 4 super strong cards and doesn’t look like it’s going to be printed the same way. Charizard, Mew, Gardevoir, Pikachu are $. Plus it’s really flying under the radar with all the other sets. Obviously we can’t see the future, but I predict this set is going to be a pretty decent investment for the long holders like myself out there. Can get a booster bundle display for 250, sometimes less.
Poke oz… Vivid voltage over shining fates? It will be close but I think SF will squeeze out a bit more juice than VV. Only reason … Shinies. Just dumped my position on both holding onto a bit for personal but after all these years I could of just gotten more Lost Origin
I really enjoyed this video and found it helpful (I’m a data geek) but not too drawn out at the same time. Nice job Michael, and thanks for the information!
I think Shrouded Fable is slightly underrated, it could have been way better. But, it is kinda meh. I would say it's worth investing in 12-18 months when it's definitely out of reprint territory. Still only like a 2.5... but it's not total garbage.
The key to pokemon investing is to just keep everything. If it drops, open it if you're gonna do anything to it. Don't SELL it. You might pull a chase, and if not, you're most definitely going to pull some things that you want to keep for the value to go back up and get most of your money back on what you opened. THEN sell the rest at the high price again. Just don't miss the wave twice.
SWSH base is investable because its base of SWSH which is a great era. But SV base isnt investable while also being the base set of (so far) an era that’s stronger up to this point? Not sure about that.
Yuck. Invest into sword and shield base set. But not SV base set cause of nostalgia. Interesting. Sv base set is overprinted but has some nice cards. And can pick up bbs at 70-75$ count me in.
What are your thoughts on Pokemon Center booster boxes vs normal booster boxes? For example, here in Canada I can preorder a booster box for a new set (Surging Sparks) for $145 from a local store, or preorder from the Pokemon Center for $211. Do you think it’s worth the premium to buy from the Pokemon Center? Will there be a better return on investment in the long run?
There's no difference in a pokemon center booster box and one from a local store. But the cheapest you can. There are pokemon center exclusive elite trainer boxes, however.
I personally don't invest in holiday sets as I prefer booster box sets. It's a shame that English 151 wasn't a booster box set in my opinion, although it's a great set no doubt. Evolving skies is a goated set and will be a tough set to beat in terms of artwork and overall value moving forward. I could go on all day speaking about the Swsh & S&V era lol. Lastly, I'll be putting some of my $$$ into Paldea Evolved & Twilight Masquerade until i hear more about Surging Sparks, which I'm personally excited for. I'm also looking forward to seeing what the S&V era has to offer us in 2025. Great video as usual.🔥🔥
Grab the booster bundle sealed cases for 151. Looks awesome and is the equivalent of almost 2 booster boxes, 60 packs. Super overlooked. And all the people getting the restock bundles aren’t getting them sealed as sets of 10
@HungTVo23 that's exactly right. I couldn't agree anymore, but unfortunately not the case. The world would riot over those 2 sets had they been booster boxes haha.
How about investing in hidden potentionals 4 booster tins? It contains 2 fusion strike and 2 lost origins packs. Is it investible? I bought 6 tins for 99,99
right now i am collecting every booster box from scarlet n violet and every pokemon center etb i have 2 of each set. just got a case of SF of 4 and also ordered a case of the new sets coming out
With scarlet violet base peopl say it’s better then sword n shield base set n most base sets aswell as base sets going up quite well I’m sure most will get ripped so was suprised to hear 1.5 on this bosterbox
What am I missing... excuse my ignorance being new to the TCG since Obsidian Flames, but how come it is so poorly considered? It's a set focused around Charizard which is a homerun right (?) and has some other decent full arts (ninetails) much the same as the other sets?? Surely this is a sleeper set and a good buy now prices are so low?
Nah. It’s the last in a long line of charizard products. It’s cheap because no one likes it. The charizard is the same exact one from a previous set, just colored a little different. Same exact pose, same shape, same everything. That’s why the charizard is like $60. Also pull rates were super easy. So EVERYONE has the charizard from obsidian. Obsidian flames is like the battle styles of SwSh, except I think battle styles is like 2x as good lol. Gaurenteed it’s the LAST set to sell out on Pokémon center. I wouldn’t touch it. Mayyyybeee 1 box but so many other products will earn you more $$
If you find loose packs of Evolving Skies in retail tins (3 in the V Striker tins for example), is that worth the investment? I know a lot in the investment space say don’t invest in loose packs, but is it a bad investment getting loose packs at original MSRP?
Nahhh, that’s a solid investment. Even loose packs sell for like $12-14 now. There will always be a market for loose, because there will be people too broke to afford the real deal ;), and there’s plenty of degen gamblers and people opening for content/pack breaks!
hey man i have 200-300 bucks and i want to start to invest with it, you think shiny tresaure can be cool? 151 too or Vstar universe? im more into japanese too
Hey babes, I have a question. Do you think the Pokemon center ETB is worth it, or should I spend $40 more USD and get another booster box? (surging sparks)
Idk about all this. The reason the base sets from years ago are so valuable is because no one was telling us to invest in them. Now every person and their mother knows to buy and treat their cards like collectibles and not toys
i bought an evolving skies booster box for 300. is it smart to sell it now for 650 and invest in some new sets that are hyped up or keep the box seald for a few years ?
Paldean Fates is WAY less printed than Shining Fates. I think it’s better than Hidden Fates. All Hidden Fates has is the Charizard and the shiny Umbreon full art. Paldean has a sick shiny Charizard too and an awesome Mew and a gorgeous Gardevoir and alot of cool trainer cards.
What? Hidden Fates has the Articuno, Mewtwo, Espeon, Leafeon, Ho Oh, Greninja, and a bunch of others…way more than just Charizard and Umbreon… Dama wasn’t lying when he called stupid man😂😂😂
@@pokeoz91 Well, there is the Charizard SIR. It might not be the biggest chase-card now, but in a 10 it already fetches 300. In the long run I think it will be sought after.
If someone can see this comment hope it helps. Do not invest on all sets, only the ones you enjoy, this will be random sets in 5-10 years and not all of them will beat the stock market. Invest on index funds and only buy Pokemon cards with the money you dedicate to your hobbies, not the money you would use to invest. Modern sets won't ever get you rich and the hobby is not as liquid as you think.
Just moved house and looking over the collection it’s shaping up a little chaotic 😅 defo have to refine my purchases. usually I buy things from the big retailers in Aus when they go on special. Paldean fates ETB was around $49 at Target a few weeks back, now back up to full MSRP of $100 AUS. Two for one deal on any product I think is a good deal Also snagged 3 151 poster packs (3 starters and 3 151 packs + 151 poster) the check out person only scanned it once so I got 3 packs of 151 poster packs for the price of 1 which was on special. So product worth $35 down to $12:50 and that’s all I paid for all three 😅

Thanks heaps man!
Very informative channel. I literally joined the hobby about 2 months ago.
Welcome aboard!

there is good value in this video. thank you for sharing full set prices.
My pleasure!
Evolving skies is in a league of its own, I’m just glad I bought into it before it skyrocketed.
Top stuff Michael🤙
Oh mate, I just wish I had bought more of it!!
Twilight and paldea evolved will be the most recent sets I'm investing in the scarlet and violet era so far.
As far as SWSH era goes I'm stacking fusion strike, crown zenith and chillijg reign. Evolving skies is probably the best set we've ever had in pokemon the price will reflect that in the next 5-10 years if you can any spare cash sitting about I'd suggest to pick up anything SWSH it's only going to go up.

Been contemplating which order to do master sets and this has helped a bit towards that list.
151 will be absolute GOLD.
What do u think will happen if it gets a reprint will it still appreciate enough eventually to invest now?
@@brysonl3282 reprint won’t matter. Buy in while you can.
@brysonl3282 Yes, as a collector, sometimes the box itself is the prize. Just by its design. 15 + years later the prize will stupid high
Which 151 is better for investment 151 ETB or Ultra Premium Collection?
With the chase cards all displayed there, i agree, we need WAY more pokemon going beast mode. Like saliva dripping, snarling, biting, flamethrowing
For sure!
Great video, well done with the pace and direction
Much appreciated!
I was just legit watching your older videos and i just saw that you uploaded! Hope you're having a great weekened mate!
Thanks! You too!
Amazing video that really helps people new to the Pokevesting world (like me), be up to date about the modern era sets for sure!!
Would love to hear your inputs on the upcoming Surging Sparks set coming in November or even Terastal Festival (which seems poised to be the next big big set with all the Eeveelutions)! Keep the awesome work!!
Glad I could help!
I have 180 packs of Evolving Skies and 1 booster box of that, paid for at retail value back in 2022. They will be waiting for the right time.
Nice work!
There is nothing to disagree with here. You brought up all valid arguments and honestly, I think your selection is perfect. Still wonder if Pia evolved had a Greninja or a crazy SIR Gerardos it would be no question be the best SV set set.
100% mate!
Thanks for the info! Looking to break into the hobby (dying to start with some 151s), but I'm curious - how do you find the set value?

Dide this video is gold. I started yesterday on the hobby and already pulled some good cards
Nice work mate!
I firmly believe in brilliant stars and paldea evolved, just ordered 2 more brilliant stars boxes this morning because I feel like I can’t ever seem to find them anywhere for a good price anymore. I’m still hopeful that paldea evolved will get a reprint so I can grab another box or 2 for a bit cheaper
2 great sets!
:Here's my Opinion:
For every New Release of Pokémon TCG buy 2 boxes, 1 for you to open up, 1 to keep it and don't bother opening it until 10 years.
Solid plan!
Shrouded fable has sold out on Pokémon centre of triple packs in England & asda's in south dorset,england had at least 12 shrouded fable etbs @ £50 ,one is left!
Someone's buying it or is it just underprinted!?
Pokémon centre obsidian flames etb for the promo p/c stamped charmander has overtaken the 151 p/c snorlax promo too value wise & collectability
Seen some costco crown zenith etb 3 packs for around $80. Pick 3 up, gonna try to get a few more before they sell out. Was it a good buy ?
youve put obsidian almost similar as silver, i think silver will do way better longterm
My take on Paldean fates: This set is almost impossible to complete as a collection because of the number of secret rares and shiny pokemon. This makes it a good investment.

Scarlet And Violet Base Set is the BEST Pokemon Base Set to EVER Be Released
for me crown is 4 or even 4.5. in 5 years every one would like to have it even if it got printed soo much
I can see it doing similar to Hidden Fates
Agree with you my friend crown zenith has some absolutely amazing cards along with it being the last yellow border set my bet would be in 5-10 years its gonna be one of the most valuable sets

Watch the chase card prices plummet 👌
If you're a collector regardless of what value it is in the market, you would still collect it. 😁

But SV base isnt investable while also being the base set of (so far) an era that’s stronger up to this point?
Not sure about that.
SV base first set with grey borders & a better set overall than SWSH base. And dont forget you can get it very cheap. seems investable to me
Print run, there's so much supply of S&V base. Booster Boxes are probably still an OK pick up.
Yuck. Invest into sword and shield base set. But not SV base set cause of nostalgia. Interesting. Sv base set is overprinted but has some nice cards. And can pick up bbs at 70-75$ count me in.

Grab the booster bundle sealed cases for 151. Looks awesome and is the equivalent of almost 2 booster boxes, 60 packs. Super overlooked. And all the people getting the restock bundles aren’t getting them sealed as sets of 10
@@toogoodtobeshoe1748 Maybe. Maybe not. As much as I like 151, it's only booster box sets for me. Each to their own.🤩
Could you imagine a booster box for crown zenith and 151? People would go even more bonkers for those two sets lol
@HungTVo23 that's exactly right. I couldn't agree anymore, but unfortunately not the case. The world would riot over those 2 sets had they been booster boxes haha.
How about investing in hidden potentionals 4 booster tins? It contains 2 fusion strike and 2 lost origins packs.
Is it investible? I bought 6 tins for 99,99
right now i am collecting every booster box from scarlet n violet and every pokemon center etb i have 2 of each set. just got a case of SF of 4 and also ordered a case of the new sets coming out
Nice work!
I'm offended that Shrouded Fable pack is anywhere near those CZ & 151 packs in the thumbnail 😆
🤣🤣
Evolving Skies is on another level.
Oh mate!
Whats ylur views on Japanese vs English for investing?
What do you think about Eevee Heroes?
is stellar crown a good start?
It's mid for me!
should i buy surging sparks to keep
For sure! I am!
With scarlet violet base peopl say it’s better then sword n shield base set n most base sets aswell as base sets going up quite well I’m sure most will get ripped so was suprised to hear 1.5 on this bosterbox
Maybe I was a touch hard on it!
I just see it doing similar to sun and moon base
My friend told me all boxes would be 5x their value in 5 years. What is your opinion about that?
It completely depends on the set 👌
What am I missing... excuse my ignorance being new to the TCG since Obsidian Flames, but how come it is so poorly considered? It's a set focused around Charizard which is a homerun right (?) and has some other decent full arts (ninetails) much the same as the other sets?? Surely this is a sleeper set and a good buy now prices are so low?
Nah. It’s the last in a long line of charizard products. It’s cheap because no one likes it. The charizard is the same exact one from a previous set, just colored a little different. Same exact pose, same shape, same everything. That’s why the charizard is like $60. Also pull rates were super easy. So EVERYONE has the charizard from obsidian.
Obsidian flames is like the battle styles of SwSh, except I think battle styles is like 2x as good lol. Gaurenteed it’s the LAST set to sell out on Pokémon center. I wouldn’t touch it. Mayyyybeee 1 box but so many other products will earn you more $$
If you find loose packs of Evolving Skies in retail tins (3 in the V Striker tins for example), is that worth the investment? I know a lot in the investment space say don’t invest in loose packs, but is it a bad investment getting loose packs at original MSRP?
Nahhh, that’s a solid investment. Even loose packs sell for like $12-14 now. There will always be a market for loose, because there will be people too broke to afford the real deal ;), and there’s plenty of degen gamblers and people opening for content/pack breaks!
People love evo skies. Anything is good!!
hey man i have 200-300 bucks and i want to start to invest with it, you think shiny tresaure can be cool? 151 too or Vstar universe? im more into japanese too
maybe not a 5 year investment but something on 6-12 ou even 18 monts
Thanks, what site is that? For the card pictures and prices
Pokedata 😊
Hey babes, I have a question. Do you think the Pokemon center ETB is worth it, or should I spend $40 more USD and get another booster box? (surging sparks)
Id definitely go the booster box 👌
@@pokeoz91 Thank you!
I mean people are kicking themselves for not buying team up at $700-$1000. So evolving is a good one. It just depends if you can afford it.
For sure+
Idk about all this. The reason the base sets from years ago are so valuable is because no one was telling us to invest in them. Now every person and their mother knows to buy and treat their cards like collectibles and not toys
Yeah going to be big disparities. But that's not too say modern cards and boxes can't be worth lots of $$
What site did you use for the screenshots?
That was off poke data
Is there a tool you use to calculate "Total Set Value"? Or is it manually added from TCGPlayer?
Pokedata pulls full set values 😊
@@pokeoz91found it, thank you!!
So i ordered some booster box and 1 was really loose shrink wrap is it worthless as a sealed product now .
That can happen occasionally. It's a legit box?
I just traded in all my $1-$20 cards for 151 sar's
Nice work!
i bought an evolving skies booster box for 300. is it smart to sell it now for 650 and invest in some new sets that are hyped up or keep the box seald for a few years ?
I'd hold mate!
@@pokeoz91 allright! thx
i just joined the hobby, is crown zenith still being printed?
Yep! Massive print run!
@@pokeoz91 what are the best channels to get informed about reprints or printruns?
@@pokeoz91 what are good channels for infos about things like reprints or stock sizes
@@pokeoz91thank you
Paldean Fates is WAY less printed than Shining Fates.
I think it’s better than Hidden Fates.
All Hidden Fates has is the Charizard and the shiny Umbreon full art.
Paldean has a sick shiny Charizard too and an awesome Mew and a gorgeous Gardevoir and alot of cool trainer cards.
they both are crap shinning and paldean
PF is way underrated
What? Hidden Fates has the Articuno, Mewtwo, Espeon, Leafeon, Ho Oh, Greninja, and a bunch of others…way more than just Charizard and Umbreon… Dama wasn’t lying when he called stupid man😂😂😂
Absolutely bonkers opinion
No way dude, as much as I like Paldea Fates, hidden fates even has a gorgeous Cynthia Trainer card. Plus all the EX shiny’s including a gardevour.
Mate, one thing though. Obsidian Flames is a Charizard set. Everybody dislikes it, but everybody is likely going to be wrong. Cool video otherwise!
Sets with no big chases will rise but not reach the same price points as sets with big chases, for sure!
@@pokeoz91 Well, there is the Charizard SIR. It might not be the biggest chase-card now, but in a 10 it already fetches 300. In the long run I think it will be sought after.
What shelves are those in the background?
Just from the local hardware store 👌
What website is he looking at with the raw prices etc?
It's Poke Data man
Is Japanese 151 also a 4.5?
For sure!!
If someone can see this comment hope it helps. Do not invest on all sets, only the ones you enjoy, this will be random sets in 5-10 years and not all of them will beat the stock market. Invest on index funds and only buy Pokemon cards with the money you dedicate to your hobbies, not the money you would use to invest. Modern sets won't ever get you rich and the hobby is not as liquid as you think.
5 years and counting with the diamond hands technique lol....
Keep going!!
Gyarados is the GOAT
🐐🐐
Paldean fates has a booster box….
Nope!
@@pokeoz91 what is the box with 10 booster bundles called?
@@jacks5323a booster bundle display 😅
Just moved house and looking over the collection it’s shaping up a little chaotic 😅 defo have to refine my purchases.
usually I buy things from the big retailers in Aus when they go on special. Paldean fates ETB was around $49 at Target a few weeks back, now back up to full MSRP of $100 AUS. Two for one deal on any product I think is a good deal
Also snagged 3 151 poster packs (3 starters and 3 151 packs + 151 poster) the check out person only scanned it once so I got 3 packs of 151 poster packs for the price of 1 which was on special. So product worth $35 down to $12:50 and that’s all I paid for all three 😅
Great work 👌
151 number 1
151 number 2
151 number 3
😎
I like ur videos but if everything is either bad 1 or 2 or good 4-4,5 this scaling was really pointless
Did u really just day paldea is better than crown zenith??!! With bro.
First!
nice XD
1!!
