Some of these prices are a little old just FYI. Shows how hard some S&V prices have tanked though!
I believe he was using AUS.
What do you think about Crown Zenith vs Lost Origin? A bit provocative but I see Crown zenith as the second strongest set of the sword and shield era. I'm comparing a special set with a normal one, but I'm still curious what you think.
Lost Origin will beat it short term. I really see CZ following a similar trend to Hidden Fates.
Half time Scarlet & Violet leading six zip, Sword & Shield substituting their mediocre sets for some banger sets, expect a major comeback in the second half😅
Hahahaha came across a bit like that hey 🤣
Damn as a Manchester United fan you just made me nostalgic for the old days...😭😭😭
Totally agree the first 6 sets are definitely better. I especially like paldea evolved, that magicarp drawn by Shinji Kanda is stunning.
I think we might see mega evolutions come back at the later half. Gotta be pumped about that. SIR mega evolutions will look incredible.
Totally agree! I look forward to every new set and checking out what's coming!
What cause do they have to bring back megas?
@@PokeCollectionsWorldwide The new Pokemon Z A coming out next year. It's a continuation of X Y. Which is set in Kalos and X Y is known for introducing mega evolutions.
TCG generally follows the games so it's logically there will be Megas as IR and SIR chases cards.
SIR mega charizard would be insane I love how mega charizard X looks
Would you rather have 2 giratina v alt art psa 10 or case of lost origin booster box or case of brilliant stars booster box?
A case of LO for sure 👌
151 got me back into the hobby! I hadn’t touched tcg since XY ERA
Same!
Welcome back 👌
The silver borders just don’t hit the same as the alt art V and Vmax cards 😢
I agree on that one for sure!
I'm a sucker for illustration and SV has put out some beautiful cards so far artwork wise.
They're nice!
SV era is slept on so much! It’s the only recent release where I’ll catch myself admiring the artwork of even the commons/uncommons. The only series with better artwork is the eseries and I’m not sure we’ll ever get a set with better artwork than the eseries. The eseries had no business going that hard
E series art work was fire!
This is a great video, I'm on the side of SWSH is the better series, but comparing sets really shows alot... SV is actually great as hell!
It's going to be the last 2/3s where sword and shield take the lead unless S&V can produce some bangers!
I completely agree with your assessment. The one argument i have heard is that the new Pokemon in SV are less appealing, which I think is said about every new gen. Only time will tell but after watching CTR spend hours opening Chilling Pain, it makes me appreciate the fun I have had opening SV with my boys. Keep up the good work. Cheers from the States!
Thanks heaps legend! 🇺🇸🇦🇺
Rarity. Lovely cards in sv no doubt but the chase cards are relatively easy to pull vs SWSH big hitters. Would like to see a SV set with a lower pull rate.
It seems the latest set has harder pull rates but no fan favourite pokemon!
Just wanted to say cheers for all the content mate! Been away from the hobby for probably 20 years so great to be able to catch up so quickly through your vids
Great to hear! Thanks mate!
very informative video . I appreciate the breakdown of these sets and what stands out among them. excellent presentation !
Glad it was helpful!
The more and more I look at it. I think we're sleeping on Obsidian Flames.
I think in the future theres a chance we'll reget not liking it more.
Just because of Charizard.
That stupid hat Charizard is wearing totally ruins it for me
I'm not sold on Obsidian Flames. I guess it depends on its print run with how it'll perform, though!
It's certainly going to be the most divisive SV set from what I've observed
I agree having charmander and charizard the theme of the set will help it in the long run. I had people saying Charizard UPC was overprinted (it was) but that held up in the end.
@@magg93 If you put a hot women in a ugly dress the women is still hot...
the texture on alt alts make them nicer than sir, art rares with no etching is unfortunate to ,just trainer gallerys realy
Agree mate!
I just bought 6 booster packs of scarlet and Violet. Gonna sit on them and sell them in 30 years see where we're at.
Base set?
Girlfriend is in Japan and I'm getting her to buy some S&V Era cards (She's even found some for her own collection), The quality and price are just too good to pass up. Plus I finally get the Squirtle and Bulbasuar (Pidgey) Cards to go with the Charmander from the OBF ETB. Hopefully those get printed in English in the near future but I'm happy to have them (And in the best print quality). Another great video Michael! 👌
Oh mate, the charmander, squirter and bulbasaur pidgey cards are beautiful!
You hit the nail on the head mate 👍 problem with SV is that if you took 151 out of the picture then roght now SV has nothing to remember it by. The latter sets that are produced will be either the turning point for SV & if not SWSH will remain as a better era in the future. I also think that the next sets for SV will determine how profitable SWSH will be in the short term future for investors 😊
Agree! The more S&V keep highlighting new pokemon, rather than gen 1/2/3, the more the latter half of sword and shield will keep rising!
I'm putting my eggs in the 151 basket I have 10 regular ETBs two poke center ETBs and a case of booster bundles 😁
Nice mate!
Great breakdown. Kinda breaks the stigmas. People are definitely fiendin for a home run of a main set.
Going to need a big 2nd half though S & V!
SVE artwork has been one of the best in all of Pokémon, I did like the texture on alts better then sir’s though.
Definitely agree mate!
Paldea Evolved is the most slept on set of the modern era. Looking forward to what they come up with in the second half of SV.
Same here!
I’m stacked on Scarlet and Violet sets , buying the dip now . I feel comfortable now to go after those Sword and shield sets from 8- after , hope I’m not to late
They'll all be just fine!
What's not talked about is card quality from SV, I agree with some other people here that it doesn't hit the same when it's in your hand. Honestly I feel that a lot of SV cards look better on screen than they do in person
Especially when Bandai, with their TCGs, are killing it. Texture, quality!
Completely agree with you. I was surprised to see the Paldea Evolved prices. Glad I completed the set when I did. Might be worth grabbing a few boxes while they are still cheap
Oh awesome, you've got a master set, would be a good looking set!
@@pokeoz91 unfortunately not a master set yet as I haven’t collected all the reverses. It does look good though. I reckon all the s and v sets display nicely
@@richardhalahan1183 at least you've got all the big hitters 💪
Buy the dip when everyone else isn't. That's SV to me. Base and Paldea Evolved are absolutely gorgeous.
Especially paldea 😎👌
True. Hard not to buy when boxes or ETB’s of SV are $10-$25 cheaper on Amazon vs everywhere else
Even though I am a Battle Styles fan, I'm going to make the call now and say Temporal Forces makes it 7-0. For mine TEF is one of the most visually appealing sets Pokemon has ever done.
Battle styles is also growing on me, but I agree, it would be 7-0
The price point for the scarlet Violet base is good for a booster box what do you think
I think you're better off going paldea evolved or temporal forces man!
Killer content as always! Love to hear your thoughts on the Japanese market now.
I'm going to do a video on that soon 👌
151 will be the best set that comes out of Gen 9 era imo. Idk what they can do with these Gen 9 pokemon to get the stonkers to stop hating, the players and collectors love this set - I find it hard to imagine them being able to make such a shift, it’s the money and the pokemon being from this era that people hate on imo and that perception is going to leak all the way through SV era.
Unless they can inject some serious gen 2 and 3 chases, I think it'll be remembered for great artwork but lack of good chase cards!
Besides the big reprints and easier pull rates, S&V is better in every other way.
Agree for the first half! It's going to need to be epic to knock off sword and shield second half!
I'll say it. That Magikarp is the best chase card out of SV. At least for non Zards fans. I feel it belongs in the same category as the Tina Alt art. It's stunning to see in person and PSA 10s will be 💰💰💰
That being said, IR Arbok is my favorite card of this block.
I agree with you there bro!
I think the art S&V is putting out is just getting better and better, if they decrease print runs like they have said they will, SV could be a powerhouse in 5+ years
Will be interesting to see if they actually do reduce print runs or if that's just a way to boost FOMO demand..
Yep in terms of art work, I'd say S&V has made a stronger start than SW&SH, but the amount of supply of S&V is probably killing it at the moment in terms of value. Will be interesting to see where we are in 4/5 years!
Look forward to seeing where Paldea and the likes move to!
@@pokeoz91 absolutely. Paldea Evolved is a strong set IMO. Could be one to invest in a few boxes of while the price is right.
Mercari has no selling fees at all, can you make a video on how this will affect online markets?
I've done a video on different selling platforms bro 👌
Sword and shield atm smashing it however I'll reserve judgement I'm sure pokemon have some big surprises coming for the later sets!
Sword and shield sets are moving now!
Paldean fates vs. rebel clash?
I've said this in like 20 videos that S&V is destroying S&S so far. It's not even close.
For once, he agrees. You feeling alright bro? 😉
@@pokeoz91 If I don't comment. That usually means I agree.
Pokemon knowledge is amazing mate!!
Thanks legend!
There’s going to be a lot of missed opportunities with S&V
For sure!
Bro discuss set print runs
Thats extremely valuable information and most people including myself arent aware of how much any given swt was generally printed. (Ik you dont have exact numbers, but general info is still good)
I wish I had some accurate number on exact print runs. From a distribution level you'll know based on allocation whether it's a small or large reprint etc
Good perspective here my man! The first few sets of every era have kind of sucked. Hard to compare sets from the back half of a generation with the sets from the front half of another generation. One day Pokemon will try to make banger early era sets.
I wonder if they're some method to it or is just the way it's panned out..
Right after this in the swsh timeline they rolled into those alt arts. So I can't wait to see what they do for Scarlet and violet if they tried to match the same trend.
Looking forward to it as well!
Scarlet and violet is much better so far in this run. Pull rates are better and so is the top chase cards. 151 will go down as one of the greatest sets of all time
It will!
I think Paldea Evolved is the best SV set so far too. Where do you think PE stands amongst your SWSH list from your last video? Somewhere around ST and AR?
Yeah that's about where I'd rank it man!
I really like Temporal Forces just pulled the Ghastly and Iron Crown Ex 👑
The art and the depth is amazing. It's just all the unknown pokemon I guess. .
@@pokeoz91 th-cam.com/users/shortsdI-y_QXq44Y?si=zLXmU5a5jHQH4DXl
Definitely a win for s&v!
Definitely bro!
I think the issue peoole are having with S & V is they are mainly a little burnt out with alt arts. Sword and shield they were still pretty fresh. Now they are like the standard in a set you expect loads of them. Still waiting for a Greninja SAR ffs lol
Na, it's just new and people always hate new... Until it begins to go out of print.
So true. Pokemon are going to have to keep innovating to capture people's attention. Can you imagine how many alt alts there might be a few generations from now? 😮
Also print quality is so bad with s & v.
Sw & sh was bad but S & V is actually a diff level of bad. No card without whitening
@@joelh90there already is a Greninja SAR
@@Daunter_Collects ahh about time. Sets not
Out yet though in english
I've been in the hobby since gen 1 lad, and let me tell you. SV is way underrated, the arts are beautiful. Market dictates the price.
Very true mate!
Don't get me wrong, I like the artworks within the S&V era, but I don't like the Pokémon. I grew up with gens 1 - 3, & the SWSH era had just that. Funny enough, in saying all this, I agree with your opinion thus far, although the S&V era better start picking up haha.😅
Yep, I think that's the general consensus hey!
tbf SIR isn't new it's just pokemon fixing the rarity system they didn't fix since Battle Styles, which they decided to fix around Vstar Universe from the Japanese side with SARs.
For context "alt arts" in JP are called "special arts" so them becoming SARs makes complete sense. Alt Arts are still there now it's an actually defined rarity you can see in a set list now.
Personally i enjoy this era a lot already especially when they drop amazing Arts like Roaring Moon, Walking Wake, Parasol Lady etc and we aren't even halfway through.
I'm sure the 2nd half will be an absolute banger too!
What kind of display do you have for the etbs? Do you like it?
As in what protective case? Or how do I display them?
@@pokeoz91 both i guess
Thinking about displaying mine with no case, I managed to get some evolving skies tho
People keep saying how weak Scarlet & Violet is but if you look at the artwork of the first 3 sets it’s actually pretty amazing. Way better then first 3 of sword and shield, better then the beginning of Sun and moon and better then XY. Obsidian Flames gets a lot of hate but that’s mostly because of the pull rates. Trust me in 5 years them awesome pull rates will carry some weight. When that set is $600 a box but you know you are most likely gonna hit a cool Zard or pidgy line people will remember that. I think booster boxes of Obsidian will always be slight ahead of Paldea and I think the Magikarp will surpass the Iono. This paradox, Temporal, Twilight phase now will be looked at as odd and will not be as coveted as the beginning of this era. Ogrepon & Roaring moon will be as sought after as Buzzwhole & Guzzlord. Not memorable. Ancient and future will be the next ultra beast and not the next delta species. I have my eye on Paldea and obsidian and will start to move my money there as soon as I feel the shift in pricing
Some very good points mate!
In what world does the charizard from obsidian flames get you 100+ dollars? That card has gone down hard
Some old prices 😅
I definitely think S&V sets so far have been great and people are sleeping on good sets. Every pokemon set is a good investment. Every one has gone up eventually, some just slower than others.
But please, masses, continue to sleep on these sets so I can still get them cheap to rip AND keep sealed. hahaha
Same here! Haha
Sword and shield era might last a lot longer because I don’t think we’re going to get any Pokémon game until 2025
What about Scarlet and Violet?
@@pokeoz91 oh sorry, that’s what I meant
Thoughts on 151 JPN tanking?
I'm not phased by it bro, my plan is to keep them long term 👌
@pokeoz91 oh I agree 👍, just an opportunity to get some more at a get price
Support comment supports
Thanks legend!
agreed scarlet and violet first 6 sets are superior
And maybe 7-0 temporal forces against battle styles
Hot take but I think battle styles will be the first winner just cause I'm struggling to find anything in temporal forces on par with tyranitar v alt the sleepy boy will be sought after long term the question is will anything in temporal forces be just as sought after long term? Like I do enjoy future and past pokemon but they kinda don't have same appeal as tyranitar v alt I don't see any of them maintaining a $100 value long term but I do see Tyranitar v alt hitting $200+ in the long term... these alt arts are alot harder too pull than any sir as well danny phantump has mentioned this key point as well@@pokeoz91
I guess people don’t like scarlet/violet because of the print run
Will be interesting to see if they do actually slow that down
@@pokeoz91 from what I’m seeing, temporal forces English has about a 40% chance to pull an secret illustration rare or hyper rare per booster box. I think they did
From what I’m seeing, temporal forces English has about a 40% chance to pull a special illustration rare or hyper rare. Not both. Danny phantump opened 21 boxes. It averaged about 3 big hits with 1 of the 3 possibly being either a special illustration rare or a hyper rare, 3 illustration rares with an average of 2 ace specs per box, and 5 or 6 regular exs. Them special illustrations are hard to come across in the new set
Good time to buy 151 or crash further?? $1800 aud 12 box case floor price I think I'm keen as on that can only go up
It's a shame they've printed so much japanese to keep up with Western demand I guess. Long term the set will be amazing and the cheaper you can find it, the better!
First
1️⃣
Just isn’t …. What? You mumbled that pretty bad in the beginning
Just isn't doing it for people 👌
Swsh spanks sv
I think later half well and truly!
@pokeoz91 all depends on if they bring back evolutions and orginal pokemon like swsh or 151
