I actually love the way the card looks. Is like you’re getting ready to go to battle and Pikachu looks back at you (trainer) like “let’s do this” It draws you in.
Pikachu to the moon!.... Nah I think it will settle around $600-700, if there's a reprint announce it will probably dip... but what to I know. Market is HOT now, Cheers! 🍻
I did to but bought for under 400 it won't tank ....people can say it will but there's a good floor in my opinion I don't see it dropping under 250 300 any time soon now who's to say what it will be in a year or 2 we can all have a opinion on it
What would you suggest I do if I got the Pikachu SIR in my first pack? 4.99$ and now should I sell raw for 500$ or get it graded and risk it being a low grade?
The card is objectively better than greninja and more recognizable by the wider audience so you can predict the pricing that way. It’s got the mascot tax And it’s harder to pull. I predict a stable pricing of 800$
Pleae advise - I open two elite trainers boxes (I really don't collect pokemon), but I was bord and thought what the hell. I pulled the the Latias EX SIR and then the Pikachi EX SIR. Shpuld I sell them or keep them?
Awesome video, Rob. I think the lack of available booster packs is affecting the price on Pikachu, as well. Everyone is ripping through their initial allocations of stock but distributors don't have any more to sell. The price could rise up over $600 in the next 4-6 weeks because TPC is printing so many other things right now that no one has Surging Sparks to open. I'm not sure how many listings for Pikachu will be available and that could really cause fomo. This set just launched and it already needs a restock/reprint.
I actually pulled it on my second BB box. Not pulled a chase card since magicarp. It looks like a ten, it smells like a ten it most likely will be a 9. I think this card will go up in value until Jan. A 600USD mark is not impossible. Folks are saving for the new set and won’t open as much. The moment eevee set is out this card will see a 30% drop. People will be chasing those leafeons and umbreons and will need capital. I suspect the drop will be seen weeks before release. (Just my few cents on the matter) :)
I was so so lucky to pull THE Pikachu at a pre-release event. I decided not to sell it just yet because I have a good feeling in my bones and I also just love the look of the cards artwork. I predict it will retain most of it’s value over Christmas 😊
You can filter on Price Charting, just above in the graph you can click on those grades and exclude the ones you dont want to display historical data on
I pulled it on the last pack of the only booster box I opened!!! Gonna keep it was extremely tempted to sell but as it only cost me £90 (cost of pre order BB) I’m definitely not at a loss and probably never will be and also it’s pretty perfect, getting it over to PSA fingers crossed
I think it will sit 500 Dollar for couple of reasons: 1. Pull rate is super low 2. Is a Pikachu, being the most iconic pokemon 3. The art is not crazy bad for it to go down in value 4. SV need a big hit card like SWSH, and people believe this is it
That Surging Sparks box is precariously perched on the Evolving Skies box on the edge of your desk. Is this a metaphor? If Surging Sparks can't measure up to the best set of the modern era, is it doomed to crash?
This is certainly not the first time we’ve seen the latest chase card from the newest set reach silly prices… It’s a great card but you’ve gotta assume there will be reprints for this set eventually, and the price will reset.
Investing in singles is always a high risk endevour. If you want safe, buy booster boxes. Booster Boxes = Global Index Fund (boring, but high chance to go up). Singles = Penny Stock (High risk, high reward).
not everybody only buy to invest tho. a lot of people, including myself, buy singles because we love the card artwork and pokemon as a whole. its something to enjoy. just to give you another perspective
@@billytjua-pp7dg Yeah, I get that. And if you look for artwork, go for it at the price you are comfortable with. But since the video was about investing, my comment was more fixated on that aspect :)
Always love your analysis of everything, feel like you just give good honest opinions. Personally looking at other pikachu cards I think it’s going to come down drastically, think everyone got a fear factor that the set was going to be hard to buy
Aren't the hyper rares the hardest cards to pull in the set? 1 out of 1127 is harder to pull than 1 in 960. I pulled the gold Pikachu ex and I'm hoping the value on it keeps going up for a while. I don't understand how its harder to pull than the SIR yet worth less, tbh I think the SIR doesn't even look that good.
I think Pikachu will keep trending up and only start to level off once Prismatic and more news of Team Rocket set releases. Will dip a bit once (if) news of reprint for Surging Sparks comes in. Personally I feel it’s overvalued but what do I know. We’ll wait and see!
Honestly, Hype will die and it'll drop but not much. It's Pikachu the most popular pokemon ever. It's also from a set that has generated so much hype for the past couple of sets. It's gonna retain a high price, but I do think it's gonna drop a tad after it's climax.
That surging sparks box hanging off the evo skies cliff in the back! I like this card a lot better than the chunkachu from vivid voltage, but what goes up must come down! Right?😅
I think this Pikachu will settle down and sit around 250-275. On the other hand, I do think over time the Milotic EX SIR will gradually go up just because the card looks really beautiful.
I thought it was a full art when I initially saw it. It's fine not my favorite from the set. I just don't like how the market is changing to what it is. I'm 36 I have 4 kids and can't watch discord for bot drops. Every time I see them it's already sold out. I just wana get my hands on some without everyone buying it all and driving the prices astronomically high. It's good and bad. Good for investing sure but what am I gona do with 2 pc etbs from a set I can't get any more product of.
Just when everyone thinks its a waste of money it does the opposite. Also pikachu is pokemon poster pokemon. Like the art or not it will still be valuable. And probably more valuable then you guys will expect ;)
I pulled this in prerelease and just sold it on cardmarket for only £200… I think I’m going to cancel the order and just keep it for the future, hope it’s the right decision!!
What? Twilight masquerade is a dope set! It stirred the tcg meta, the name of set, greninja + carmine. I do hate bloodmoon SIRi, they should of gone dark with the card but instead made it winnie the pooh. Everyone loves a pikachu card, the pull rate and hype will keep it above 500 by next year
Not sure why it would crash with hard pull rates and a booster box increasing in price. Supply and demand. Even with people waiting and saving for prismatic, surging will create a new baseline for the next hype sets. (eveelution, rocket, and partner pokemon) The desire for pokemon is bringing in new money and new people.
the pikachu SIR will probably have a floor of 200+ to 300 - rationale is that there will be people who will buy them instantly at 200+. no way price it will drop to 200+ in the next few months i think, since its holiday season. Can’t say for sure in the year to come, but I think there’s a possibility it may drop for a while, due to focus being on the eevees and rocket etc. and money being spent there instead
Will be more. I assume less boxes are getting bought due to the average box prices, so less will be opened. It will all (mostly) be opened in time, but just not as quick. Only 1 for sale on tgc player backs that up!
I think there’s just too much hype about it right now. The set has been out a week! I think it gets into the $600s by Christmas then starts to drop. I would think it eventually settles into the $2-300 range in 6 months. At least that’s my hope. 😂😅
My opinion it's gonna be a 400$ by the end of the year. Pullrates are difficult and its a pikachu chase card. Boxes are mostly sold out on release...so there are many indicators this card is gonna stay or go up and not crashing😊
This may be the most interesting card to follow this year. Blows my mind. It WILL DEF crash. Within a month or less. Won’t spend more than 200-250$ on it the next few months. I think it’s gonna be around Greninja price at the end of the year.
I think the only thing carrying the Pikachu card is runaway hype. All the telltale signs are there. It's not a particularly special looking card, and most people don't even know it's pull rates, so I don't think that's a factor either. Give it until Christmas when Prismatic Evolution is days away and it'll plummet.
Before i heard your $600 prediction for the Pikachu by xmas, I was thinking slightly higher - $700 . Surging Sparks will continue to climb through the holiday season and into 2025
I invest in displays and not in this card😂 you can buy 3 displays of this. I love selaed products that looks good at home, cards are often have a Bad centering and so on😂😂😂
It’s definitely a tough call. I feel like it will hold its value, but I’m not sure it will continue to climb. The next set will likely take the focus off of the Pikachu.
Out of all the cards in Surging Sparks the Pikachu is definitely not my favorite. The SIR Milotic and SIR Alolan Exeggutor are probably my favorite cards from the set and I even prefer the Hydreigon and the Latias above the Pikachu. The Pikachu is a cool card, but I don't think I could get myself to pay over $200 for it. That said, I think the Pikachu will hold roughly steady and will be between $400-500 at Christmas. I don't think it'll stay over the $500 mark but I can't see it dropping below the $400 mark at this point. At least not for a few months.
By Christmas, I'm sure it will be at least 20% more expensive, and in a year, it will be 50% less expensive. I bet all the Christmas shopping and people opening this set will flood the market with this card, and it will eventually come down. But I don't know, I'm terrible at math and even worst at pulling good cards 😂
Try writing things like "Very quiet. Special skills include cleaning, taking out the garbage, and raking leaves. They are also willing to contribute to rent once they are old enough to work" in the description. And include pictures where they are smiling. Worked for me.
It’s fully overrated, but it doesn’t matter. Greninja also is and “look at the numbers”. I think it going to be wild priced regardless being good or bad 😅
cant agree with you more bro ..i bought mine at 375 felt like i got good deal to and its super clean its definitely going to be a gold mine in my opinion dont be scared to win some lose some cant make money if you dont spend money , me i just want one for my pc and if i pull more ill sell then
I think $300-$500 is fine for this card. But the $1000+ it's probably going to hit before the end of the year is too much. But the pull rates are incredibly difficult.
I think this Pikachu is gonna be worth over 600 dollars. I started conservatively at 400 and when it shot past that like nothing I’ve had to reevaluate. Everyone hated the crown gimmick, but now that’s definitely over.
Great video buddy! I made the mistake of buying early one of that shiny shrimp lookin Gyrardos with the crown when Scarlet Violet first came out, for way too much lol
I honestly don't think it's going to properly crash... but the difference between this and Greninja is even though Greninja has only gone up, Pikachu came flying out of the gates at at least 2x the price of Greninja. I think it will pull back a bit a decent amount at least for a while, and if it doesn't, oh well. There are far safer, more reliable, and likely more profitable plays that a card thats 3x the value of the booster box on launch weekend. It's wild how high the price is going, it reeks of FOMO. I'm ready to be wrong, but really not worth the risk imo. It's a solid long term play, but I don't like the current prices at all.
I really hope this card isn’t this high at Christmas. This card is not good enough to warrant that price, and if it stays this high or goes higher, I think it’s not a great sign for the hobby - along with other signs.
Dude surging sparks pikachu is overpriced as shit. The fact that its more then the Lost Origin Giratina Ex is insane!!! Its sooo boring, hell the Ceruledge full art is soo mich better
i dont like the pikachu card. its the worst SAR of the set in my opinion if not for the durant SAR lmao. i’d rather have the lisia SAR or the milotic SAR. both WAY better than the pikachu
People are getting crazy with the psa 10 prices and the raw prices. The card is selling as a 10 for 3k multiple times. Currently tcg says the lowest is $730. This is craziness. Guys don’t fomo. I think this card is going to drop when prismatic evolution comes out. Will it drop a lot, I am not sure, but I think a raw copy would go back to 300 within a year.
I actually love the way the card looks. Is like you’re getting ready to go to battle and Pikachu looks back at you (trainer) like “let’s do this” It draws you in.
Could that Surging Sparks booster box BE any closer to falling? - Chandler Bing
😂
I actually love the way the card looks.

It draws you in.
Agreed. That's my Pikachu.
People will quickly stop freaking out over the Pikachu and move on to Prismatic Evolutions.
Prismatic aint even a main set
I'll take Surging Sparks over Prismatic Evolutions any day of the week.
I like surging evolutions over prismatic sparks personally
Pikachu from Vivid Voltage is harder to pull than SS - 1/1092 packs.
I think that Pika will be $200 (or less) card in year from now.
Good point
However vivid voltage has far less cards in the set as well as full arts.
If that card drops $200 booster boxes will drop below $130. I don't see it maybe $400.
its almost the same pull rate....so that argument is invalid
@@ModernLunaticGaming If pull ratio is the same my argument is very good and price will drop, lol
Pikachu to the moon!.... Nah I think it will settle around $600-700, if there's a reprint announce it will probably dip... but what to I know. Market is HOT now, Cheers! 🍻
400$ for a card of pikachu’s shining butthole? Whats not to like! 😂
I may have made a mistake…. I did the thing. I bought the pikachu
I declare: BANKRUPTCY!!!
To the moon!
I did to but bought for under 400 it won't tank ....people can say it will but there's a good floor in my opinion I don't see it dropping under 250 300 any time soon now who's to say what it will be in a year or 2 we can all have a opinion on it
they said something about the greninja...alot of people felt crazy to not buy at 140 150 greninja will never we 150 range again
I dont believe you made mistake ..I think you made good move aslong as you didn't pay over 400 for it..hard to pull just like the ninja was
As soon as Prismatic evolutions releases, this pikachu will probably drop rapidly
I bought every card but the pikachu SIR as I don’t card for how it looks. Latias going to be the real chase once the hype dies.
What would you suggest I do if I got the Pikachu SIR in my first pack? 4.99$ and now should I sell raw for 500$ or get it graded and risk it being a low grade?
This card is so much nicer in person!Definitely will go above and beyond £500 by Christmas. This is a great set! Loving it!!!
The card is objectively better than greninja and more recognizable by the wider audience so you can predict the pricing that way. It’s got the mascot tax
And it’s harder to pull. I predict a stable pricing of 800$
Dude its higher priced then Lost origin Giratina EX, yet the giratina is sooo much cooler
I think this pickachu will preserve its value over time very well, thank you for the video!
just released, therefor its over priced, no way it will command that price by the time the 3rd print wave is released
So you’re telling me taking out a second mortgage on the pikachu was a mistake (just a joke)
Only two mortgages? Those are rookie numbers. We gotta pump those numbers up!
if this is whats happening with this pikachu whats the umbreon gonna be like with this next set?
I believe it will be the median between the moonbreon and greninja
Pleae advise - I open two elite trainers boxes (I really don't collect pokemon), but I was bord and thought what the hell. I pulled the the Latias EX SIR and then the Pikachi EX SIR. Shpuld I sell them or keep them?
Grade them, then see what you're looking at.
Awesome video, Rob. I think the lack of available booster packs is affecting the price on Pikachu, as well.

One week it went from $190 outa the pack to $500-$700.
Yeah what a terrible investment to have a surefire profit even if you bought it for $500
It should be about $1400 by Friday 🔥
I was so so lucky to pull THE Pikachu at a pre-release event. I decided not to sell it just yet because I have a good feeling in my bones and I also just love the look of the cards artwork. I predict it will retain most of it’s value over Christmas 😊
You can filter on Price Charting, just above in the graph you can click on those grades and exclude the ones you dont want to display historical data on
Thanks Jeff!
I think it’ll follow VMax Pikachu. It’ll take a big hit after Prismatic releases and everyone’s attention shifts. But what do I know!?
This card is never going below $200
I pulled it on the last pack of the only booster box I opened!!! Gonna keep it was extremely tempted to sell but as it only cost me £90 (cost of pre order BB) I’m definitely not at a loss and probably never will be and also it’s pretty perfect, getting it over to PSA fingers crossed
I think it will sit 500 Dollar for couple of reasons:
1. Pull rate is super low
2. Is a Pikachu, being the most iconic pokemon
3. The art is not crazy bad for it to go down in value
4. SV need a big hit card like SWSH, and people believe this is it
Its pikachu. I think its it!
@ I agree
748 minimum by jan 1st
I just pulled this card from my free pack at GameStop, so I should sell it asap?
If you like it, keep it. If it looks good, I'd grade it asap
That Surging Sparks box is precariously perched on the Evolving Skies box on the edge of your desk. Is this a metaphor? If Surging Sparks can't measure up to the best set of the modern era, is it doomed to crash?

Love your content.this Pikachu SAR gonna surpass greninja by a mile for sure $500 or more for Christmas
I value your and Beards' videos. Market research is so time-consuming. Appreciate your work. I'll be a subscriber until you're done with RUclips.
Always love your analysis of everything, feel like you just give good honest opinions. Personally looking at other pikachu cards I think it’s going to come down drastically, think everyone got a fear factor that the set was going to be hard to buy
Not sure about the cost of pikachu by Christmas but i expect Surging Sparks sealed to probably keep going up before some type of retailer restock.
Aren't the hyper rares the hardest cards to pull in the set? 1 out of 1127 is harder to pull than 1 in 960. I pulled the gold Pikachu ex and I'm hoping the value on it keeps going up for a while.

Great video, love the content. Pika could def hold at around $400. Closer we get to the new eevee set the fomo will wear off.
Cheers dude!
I think this Pikachu will settle down and sit around 250-275.
On the other hand, I do think over time the Milotic EX SIR will gradually go up just because the card looks really beautiful.

Investing in it at $400+ is bold IMO. It’s probably organic demand but Jesus the risk there…
Especially if you get a copy with blemishes or whatever.
Not sure why it would crash with hard pull rates and a booster box increasing in price. Supply and demand. Even with people waiting and saving for prismatic, surging will create a new baseline for the next hype sets. (eveelution, rocket, and partner pokemon)
The desire for pokemon is bringing in new money and new people.
"$600 card by Christmas." Try only a few days later 😅
Yeah. 60% of the time I'm right every time 😅
@@Robdoespokemon San DIAAAAGO...created by the Germans..it means a whales [redacted] 🤣😂
Between the two: Pikachu ex SIR (rainbow) vs Greninja ex sir. Spend your money on Pikachu!
the pikachu SIR will probably have a floor of 200+ to 300 - rationale is that there will be people who will buy them instantly at 200+.
no way price it will drop to 200+ in the next few months i think, since its holiday season. Can’t say for sure in the year to come, but I think there’s a possibility it may drop for a while, due to focus being on the eevees and rocket etc. and money being spent there instead

Did you say... "The guys at millenium are back on acid trips during lunch breaks?" HAHAHA. It's good that you're back.
I ended up pulling a greninja out of a random pack. If I didn't, I wouldnt even stop foot into the market to buy one 😭😭
What should I do if I literally just pulled one ?
Fold it up, cut off one corner, and send it to CGC to grade. Seriously though, congrats. If it looks clean, I'd grade it.
@ I’m new to collecting so I wasn’t sure if I should hold onto it or not
Let’s look at the numbers just never gets old coming from you
Lol. Thanks dude

It’s hard to pull, the 10 rate is difficult and there is a short in supply… it’s definitely a buy 100%
Pikachu is looking back because he knows he is quicker. All the while will grow tired.🤔
That being said..$624.95 at Christmas
I think I'll just stick to sealed products, too many unknowns for singles for my liking 😅
I really liked your hair in this one! 💪
Before i heard your $600 prediction for the Pikachu by xmas, I was thinking slightly higher - $700 . Surging Sparks will continue to climb through the holiday season and into 2025
You, pokeoz and poke office are the best!!! Most accurate youtubers around. Cheers from the netherlands!!!! I wont invest!!!
Michael and Colin are rockstars. I'm just happy drinking apple juice in the basement. Thanks dude!
I invest in displays and not in this card😂 you can buy 3 displays of this. I love selaed products that looks good at home, cards are often have a Bad centering and so on😂😂😂
It’s definitely a tough call. I feel like it will hold its value, but I’m not sure it will continue to climb. The next set will likely take the focus off of the Pikachu.

The SIR Milotic and SIR Alolan Exeggutor are probably my favorite cards from the set and I even prefer the Hydreigon and the Latias above the Pikachu. The Pikachu is a cool card, but I don't think I could get myself to pay over $200 for it.
That said, I think the Pikachu will hold roughly steady and will be between $400-500 at Christmas. I don't think it'll stay over the $500 mark but I can't see it dropping below the $400 mark at this point. At least not for a few months.
Since it became my best pull of all time, I sincerely hope it goes over 600
Pikachu is a tough hit. This card is on the level of moombreon
Lmao not even close
By Christmas, I'm sure it will be at least 20% more expensive, and in a year, it will be 50% less expensive. I bet all the Christmas shopping and people opening this set will flood the market with this card, and it will eventually come down. But I don't know, I'm terrible at math and even worst at pulling good cards 😂
Just starting to collect again, I think most new Pokémon cards are rising as the hobby is getting more popular!
I’m going to have to wait on this one Rob…. 😢 No one has taken me up on selling my kids on FB marketplace lol

cant agree with you more bro ..i bought mine at 375 felt like i got good deal to and its super clean its definitely going to be a gold mine in my opinion dont be scared to win some lose some cant make money if you dont spend money , me i just want one for my pc and if i pull more ill sell then
I think $300-$500 is fine for this card. But the $1000+ it's probably going to hit before the end of the year is too much. But the pull rates are incredibly difficult.
Moonbreon is already over 1000.
dont forget we dont get another main set for almost 6 months..so keep that in your mind when you decide to spend 600$ on card thats 3 days old
I pulled pikachu last night I was so hyped!!!
I have opened 1 ETB and get only 1 hit worth 2 dollars. I rather keep everything else closed forever. Same with prismatic.
I think this Pikachu is gonna be worth over 600 dollars. I started conservatively at 400 and when it shot past that like nothing I’ve had to reevaluate.
Everyone hated the crown gimmick, but now that’s definitely over.

I'm ready to be wrong, but really not worth the risk imo. It's a solid long term play, but I don't like the current prices at all.
This is a good take
I really hope this card isn’t this high at Christmas. This card is not good enough to warrant that price, and if it stays this high or goes higher, I think it’s not a great sign for the hobby - along with other signs.
i think it may be around 500 around Christmas and mayyyyyyy go down because alot of people will be chasing the eeveelutions more, but who knows lol
Great video Robby Burns!!
i think it'll be 450-500 around christmas. The fomo train is moving too fast for a quick correction imo
love your content!
Thank you 🙏🙏🙏
All the flipper dippers are pumping the hell outta cards these days
Ayyyyy congrats to the giveaway winner!
I've seen irrational pricing on hyper modern cards perpetuate themselves as long as people are willing to normalize and pay these insane prices.
Any card that is hard to pull with awesome Pokémon and awesome arts should be worth a lot.
I think it’ll be right around 500 at Christmas
Dude surging sparks pikachu is overpriced as shit. The fact that its more then the Lost Origin Giratina Ex is insane!!! Its sooo boring, hell the Ceruledge full art is soo mich better
Dude, the Ceruldege is fire. I like the Hydreigon better as well.
i dont like the pikachu card. its the worst SAR of the set in my opinion if not for the durant SAR lmao. i’d rather have the lisia SAR or the milotic SAR. both WAY better than the pikachu
People are getting crazy with the psa 10 prices and the raw prices. The card is selling as a 10 for 3k multiple times. Currently tcg says the lowest is $730. This is craziness. Guys don’t fomo.
I think this card is going to drop when prismatic evolution comes out. Will it drop a lot, I am not sure, but I think a raw copy would go back to 300 within a year.
People who buy this card are going to regret it when the bubble pops.
I think this Pikachu will probably be down by Christmas because a lot of products are being ripped and will continue to be ripped up until that time.
I actually love the way the card looks.
Is like you’re getting ready to go to battle and Pikachu looks back at you (trainer) like “let’s do this”
It draws you in.
A black label for this Pik SIR would be crazy
