Just recently got back into the card collection hobby and have really been enjoying all these great videos helping me understand the market. Great video man! Keep up the great work 🙏
I'm new to collecting, but I'm hooked and love all the artworks. Love so many people of all ages can come together and talk and share the love of this hobby. 😊
I've only recently gotten myself and my wife into the hobby. Started very small and just picked a set and gradually collected it. We have come to really enjoy pulling nice looking cards rather than just focusing on the chase cards. Its sad when you begin and soon realise most people think of 70% + of a pack as trash but it is also humbling when my wife pulls a regular card and comments on the artwork. Thanks for your videos, has been a big help getting into the hobby and understanding a small fraction of how it all works.
I appreicate all the insights on the TCG, bro. Sometimes it does get overwhelming, but its nice when someone can guide and educate on the topic! I think alt arts are going up because people love the the art and how it tells a story; I believe FOMO plays a major role in panic buying / price increase as some of these cards in SWSH dissapear from the store shelves.
I'm a new collector that got into the hobby last month. Not that I don't like vintage cards but it's the modern cards that got me into this hobby. The artwork are just amazing! I'm trying to collect all IR from all sets, trainer gallery, and the VMAX cards!
Just got back into collecting starting with opening my first CZ etb last summer. From the start, I loved full art cards, and my goal was to collect them. I thought I’d have more time, but it looks like everyone else caught on to the hype a lot sooner. The art on some of these cards is jaw dropping! My strategy for singles is, I go for Japanese or English, whichever is cheaper at the time of a dip 😂 Thanks for the information!
Love the content! I was a big Pokémon collector way back when. The SIRs have got me back into it and your videos are great for advise on how to go about it. Thanks for the top work!
You're video's are refreshing with them actually being informative and not just some dude ripping packs or going to random stores to pick up product lol.
I've seen so many posts from collectors are hating the news of a 151 reprint. Like you said, look at evolving skies. Many reprints and that umbreon has still gained value along with many of the cards in the set. I say bring on the 151 reprint. I want to finish the set!
I think in time more and more people will appreciate these cards more and more for how beautifull they actually are. The Gardevoir evolution line alt art is my favorite of all, just love how they take you trough a story with these cards
When I was getting back into collecting, I was always surprised to see how much people follow the trends of buying the chase card even when, imo, some aren't that cool. I see now there was a strong investment aspect of it too lol, I think I'll stick with buying what I want though! Awesome sponsorship btw, joined
I‘m playing Pokémon go since a few months again and recently I’m also into Pokémon tcg.. I love the artwork of so many cards. When I was a child I remember I had a binder with almost every 1st edition base set card. Back in the days a friend in school stole it and only returned a few.. otherwise I’d probably still have lots of them since I’m a collector haha. Still good memories saving money to buy a booster and collect my favourite Pokémon ❤ thanks for your videos
Honestly alt arts are why I started collecting. Had to sell my collection to pay for car damages though, had big ones like Gengar and Tina 😢. But I’m aiming to collect them again hopefully they don’t go too high in price.
Another Banger! I love these videos and i can't believe the giveaway this video! I have been looking for this amazing Inteleon alt for ages and i thought i might give it a go! Anyways thanks for this amazing video, i will ask my dad to get a at art for christmas lol.
I’ve only been in the hobby for a month now and I had my first big pull today. Pulled a Glaceon Vmax from a premium collection box that had 3 evolving skies packs (first time i’ve opened an older pack). I don’t know whether to hold it or try use it to get a bubble mew. Love the content, it’s been very informative and helpful to me as someone who is just getting started.
Be selfish in that situation, it’s impossible to considering financial,personal,business,relationship,emotions,knowledge,data,insights,inside information. It’s all you
Good video as usual. I'm not sure if it's a thing you'd want to do, Phil, but I'd be curious to know what the different factors behind spikes of value in general are and especially how they potentially 'rank' in a tier system, if you like. So for example, seasonal buying (or not spending, such as in January/February), the word of influencers/YT content creators, stock scarcity, artwork, artist, rumours, official news, reprints or no reprints, etc. I'm not sure it's even possible to rank them! But I'm definitely curious as to how you see the relevance and importance of these things as part of the big picture.
Hey, Phil! I stumbled upon your RUclips channel about a month ago, and I have to say, I’m really enjoying the content. The lessons you've shared on investing, collecting, grading, and avoiding FOMO have been refreshing as I dive back into the hobby. I'm trying to balance investing and passion, and I'm bringing my 11-year-old son along for the journey, too! We are going to a pre-release Surging Sparks Build and Battle event tonight! It’s an exciting time, and I’m grateful to have you as a resource. Have a great day to you and everyone else watching!
That inteleon is so nice! I have the Zeraora alt art from chilling reign in a 10 that im trying to sell currently, but I might hold onto it for a little!
Hi great video, i think this type of art establishes a new era in Pokemon tcg, therefore the alternate cards of now (sw and sv) will be the new classics in a few years
Got in during Obsidian Flames, so I missed all the Sword and Shield alternate arts. Not surprised at these price increases considering how fast the newer, more accessible sets are rising in value.
I'm just starting to get into Pokemon collecting. I was more of a sports card guy, but I like what I see with Pokemon more. It's not so crazy expensive to collect interesting and beautiful cards.
I think Alt Arts as well as most cards are a solid investment. They are a new thing over the past few years, and who knows how long they will be around. Look at rainbow rares - in and out over what, 7 years? If art cards ever disappear, then it's only going to grow even more. As sets run out and we move on to new sets, there's a high chance that cards will grow in value.
The Chi-Yu is slept on for such a stunning card! Alt Arts are timeless. They're the kind of card that people take their eyes off when they get distracted by shiny new card types, but always come back to. I've done it myself.
these are some amazing cards and they will do very well pricewise in the long run anyway.. having said that I don't think I have the stomach to buy a card that costs more than $150-200 unless it's something completely unique
Inteleon is an awesome card. I want a full page of them!
You better make that full page!

Boom! I'm thrilled. Thanks Phil! Email it willl be.
@@jaredp6536 Thanks - Let me know once done!
I think these takes the hobby from JUST cards to mainly ART, which I love!
Agreed, I see these cards from a Art perspective and the artist that create these are top tier💯
Great perspective that I hadn’t thought of. They are 💯 art Collectables 👌🏼
Agree! Cuz there's something for EVERYONE even the "cheaper" alt arts are still GORGEOUS
Its just crazy how certain cards are sought after but there are just a ton more that are under the radar.
Good let all the cats chase the laser while i scoop up cheaper stuff thatll go up for a better profit margin over time
Hahaha @@BassoonGoon4Lyfe

Thanks Phillip.
You have been very good at calling a few earlier this year before they pump, you clearly have a talent for identifying cards early.
I'm new to collecting, but I'm hooked and love all the artworks. Love so many people of all ages can come together and talk and share the love of this hobby. 😊

Do You Think Alt Arts Keep Rising?

I like the alt art and the way Pokémon card modern design (after S&H) . The design brought me back to collecting.

Another Banger! I love these videos and i can't believe the giveaway this video! I have been looking for this amazing Inteleon alt for ages and i thought i might give it a go! Anyways thanks for this amazing video, i will ask my dad to get a at art for christmas lol.
I love picking up these beautiful alt arts when they are right in the dip.

I'm new in the world of collecting Pokemon Cards, and this channel ist pure gold! Thanks for all of thia informative content!
I cannot tell you how many times I have to stop and think what would Phillip do when stopping myself from buying some of these cards right now.
Haha, these alts are too pricey for multiple buys!
Be selfish in that situation, it’s impossible to considering financial,personal,business,relationship,emotions,knowledge,data,insights,inside information. It’s all you
Duuddeee that inteleon has always been so slept on. It’s so cool!
I’ve learned so much from you after getting back into pokemon cards!
Crazy to see this new era of cards rising to a whole new heights. Wowie
Thanks for posting

I’m super excited for the new alt arts in the upcoming sets! We’re just in such an exciting time with a ton of beautiful Pokémon arts coming out
Hi great video, i think this type of art establishes a new era in Pokemon tcg, therefore the alternate cards of now (sw and sv) will be the new classics in a few years
nice card , just started investing in cards Steller crown is where i am at , slow to the party
Thank for all the info helps me and my friends not getting scammed
I'm really liking a lot of these illustration rares.
Hi Phil!
Alt arts are simply beautiful, they'll fluctuate, but eventually trend upwards!
great vids as always brother
Thanks bro! Appreciate the support!
Got in during Obsidian Flames, so I missed all the Sword and Shield alternate arts. Not surprised at these price increases considering how fast the newer, more accessible sets are rising in value.
All of the alt art cards all have such unique artworks!
I just started collecting pokemon last month, and it just happened to be my favorite card that you're giving away. Bless you brother😇
I'm just starting to get into Pokemon collecting. I was more of a sports card guy, but I like what I see with Pokemon more. It's not so crazy expensive to collect interesting and beautiful cards.
It's a great TCG, you'll love it!
Awesome info 🔥
I got my first graded card back today! Squirtle SIR from Stellar Crown in a 10!
I missed the boat on some of those singles. Thank goodness I banked on some sealed. Real hard to justify some of these prices for singles on a budget.
Im just glad I got my Bubble Mew before the crazy price spike :D
I start investing in pokemon card this year and you have helped me make less nooby mistake. Thanks a lot for your content . I appreciate it greatly.
I have learnt a lot from your channel, thank you!
My pleasure!
:) excited to watch all ur videos

Started collecting solely because i love the alternate arts.
phil keep up the great work!
