Evolving skies and 151 were popular but didn't becomes what they are until later. Evolving skies took quite a while to become the legend that it is while 151 took less than a year. 151 sealed will surpass evolving skies at some point and reach it a lot faster than evolving skies did. Prismatic is popular before even getting released, which is pretty rare for a set, especially on this level. I'm not sure where it will fall in grand scheme of themes. I think the only reason it's going crazy is because of evolving skies and people are looking at dollar signs for investing and not at the actual set. The eeveelution cards are great but I don't think they compare to the evo skies alt arts, or that the set overall compares to the popularity of gen 1 pokemon like in 151. However, prismatic is likely to be more popular than team rocket. I think the hype for team rocket is much more specific with less broad reaching appeal
I think looking at the popularity of sets like Surging Sparks and Prismaic Evolutions is pretty useless. The hype is so complete now that any set that features a chase card is doubled at release. Evolving Skies, 151 and Fusion Strike are (so far) the best modern sets.
The unique Pokémon take is so true and it’ll be interesting if they match them up with vintage Pokémon so older and newer fans alike enjoy them. We’ll have to see! Love the concept of this video too, happy near year non-singlet Phil! 😂
I have so much 151 selaed packs broke down everything to just the packs easier to store long term. Dont forget to check your local cards shops most around me have said they will start selling the day before so be prepared guys
The majority of people that got into it again because of TCG Pocket will fizzle out after Prismatic Evolutions while printing for the year and into 2026 for the 30th anniversary will be high to match current demand. Shouldn’t be hard to get your hands on stuff after the first quarter of 2025 and expect to see a TON of stuff listed for sale online starting around that time as the hype train collectors try to liquidate the stock they have.
That's basically msrp for those. If you think they'll be worth something down the road then go for it. Sv era has promos which make them worth more. Anything before does not.
@ nice reply bro but it’s still something exclusive right? There’s only a limited number of them and they’re being ripped everyday :)) btw I thought msrp for them is just $50 on the pokemon center
Pokémon will make me broke in 2025 😂
I'm already broke because of the prismatic preorders😂
The most accurate prediction of 2025
But rich in 2026
@@nope8637 Nice....😁
Ditto 😂

A trend is your friend til the end.
Thanks for your insight !
Dark/rockets charizard team rocket 🚀 2025!
That would be awesome…would be pretty pricey though haha
Thank you for your service Phil! I enjoy listening to you talk because you are articulate and always make great points!
Love the content. I never thought pokemon center stamps be this high when they first came out in SV.
Curious to see where preorder prices land for the team rocket set. Think the preorders will be msrp due to demand?
Easier said than done but in 2025 Preorder when you can when products are available at MSRP.
100%, though its getting much harder.
Bring on 2025! What a time to be alive in the Pokemon TCG.
Rocket cards will also make a big comeback so the OG cards will see a rise in value
Hey philip do you think the upcoming "journeys together" bb is good investion?
scalpers make it difficult to get these newer sets sadly
2:16 Gen 1 with modern art is always a winner.

Appreciate you watching! It’s gonna be a wild year
Phil, do you invest in sealed Pokemon products?
yep...here i am thinking about starting or not...i am brazilian...so its 10 times harder
M Heracross SIR incoming, so hype

If the Rocket set will mirror the cards in the original rockets it’s going places; dark Charizard, Blastoise and dark eeveelutions? Yes please 🙏
I seriously cannot wait!
This will be the year we all either go broke or sell off our collections.
I feel like this year i might recover a little bit from all those sets 2024, BUT I think it will be the opposite
Sitting on my sealed 151 and prismatic!
Hooray. See you in 10 years.

I think so too, I think after Prismatic some hype will slow down
Finally the first one here to watch the video
Got a deal on lost origin pokemon center etb for $75usd in my region in asia. Should I buy 2 of it and hold or just pass
