Right now it’s in the same tier as Shining Fates and Paldean Fates. While CZ has more cooler cards imo, it doesn’t have a chase Zard you can pull. Hate English for putting the CZ Zards as promos.
@@vangarang3667 absolutely not. Funnest set in history to open, last set with yellow boarders, the greatest gold cards ever made. It's also a plus that there is no charizard.
Yeah I just bought a case of 3 pack blisters for crown zenith. Think that’s the way I’ll be investing in the set. 3 pack blisters tend to do well over time

Thank you for making videos like this, pokerev got me back into collecting but your videos are what I watch to learn anything of real value 🎉 keep killing it my friend I appreciate you 🙏🙏🙏
Your twilight masquerade rating is way off. You cant rank a set based on the few cards with bad art. That greninja is the most expensive chase in the entire generation. Ill give you a pass since this video is over a month old lol
If grenjnja is the only thing going for the set that’s kinda sad, I honestly think the Japanese art style promo looks way better imo so I sort of agree with it being a garbage set
lovin the vids man. cannot agree more regarding paradox rift. I see a good amount of people totally sleeping on it. I'm grabbing it for dirt cheap rn and it will definitely be a top 3 standard set for this era
Love your videos man. Been watching all of them. Would love a weekly video of best finds under $5 bucks or something like that. There’s so many cheap cards out there to be found and highlighted.
Good ranking The more time goes by the more i actually like scarlet violet sets. If the big hits arent to easy to get then Sv can actually be one of the best eras i think
Yeah... however, the art rares in Twilight Masquerade are absolutely fantastic, and we still have a popular pokemon in greninja, plus the trainer SAR's in Twilight Masquerade are some of the best we've seen so far, like there's just a lot of variety. I agree that the ogerpon cards are a little underwhelming but we haven't even seen the english cards in person, so it's kind of hard to judge something based on practically nothing. either than that, this is a really cool video! I agree that paradox rift is underrated
About 1/3th of my collection is lost origin. Been buying it since it came out and 1/3th of my collection is crown zenith because it's in my opinion the most fun set to open EVER
Totally agree the illustration rares should be higher rated. Those cards are the main reason i want twilight masquerade, i actually want to get the singles if the set doesnt blow up so fingers crossed they dont sky rocket
Solid ranking. Im curious to see whay happens with Twighlight M. There are a few cool cards in there, and japanese collectors are snapping them up. Battle styles is a great sleeper set, i hope it hits $250 down the road, even if it takes a while
I think the Groudon illustration rare is going be the next card to take off in price. I won't be surprised if it hits 75-100 in the next 6 months. I also think that Chansey card from Twilight Masquerade is going to be a surprise hit.
For sure. I made a video like a week ago about all the cards that are going to boom. Both of those are on the list. I like the groudon way more then tyranitar but it's way easier to grade the groundon
Print run doesn't matter as long as there is demand, and CZ is probably the best set of all time. It will fly down the road, just give it a bit of patience. Also the hit rate reminds me of Legendary Treasures, which everyone still remember for exactly that. Thats a big green light for me
This is just speculation on my part (plus I'm about a month late lol) but I actually mostly agree with you on Paradox. Maybe I wouldn't go as big as Empty Your Savings (I would put it about 1-2 lower tiers) but I have a feeling it will continue to do well. I'm late and a lot of the cards have already risen, the artwork is just top notch though it mostly features less popular Pokemon. It's kind of wild that it is considered the new Battle Styles when there's just so much variety and great artwork in it.
Man you are so right about Generations and I went and blew my savings on Celebrations when it came out and didn’t even really know about generations yet so Ya
Another amazing video as usual! I did literally empty my savings on LO cases and BS because FOMO was going through the roof, I'll end up looking like an idiot in a few years or a smart investor : )
I think TM will be better than people think. Personally i think the Greninja looks great. It is quite hard to judge a few of the SV sets until we have the full era to reflect on. A lot of people slept on CR and FS until very recently. I think the same will happen with likes of TF and TM.
Another overlooked card in Paldea Evolved is the Heracross IR. I know a ton of folks who’s favorite pokemon is heracross and he’s a solid Gen 2 pokemon. Unless it has a massive reprint, I think it’ll be one of the best SV sets for the nostalgia factor
You do know value wise paldea evolved beats temporal forces and the set came out a long time ago. Temporal forces is pure Gen 9 with some remakes of popular pokemon that a lot of people actually hate.
I bought 3 boxes of Masquerade after not buying pokemon cards since the very first set from the 90's, and yea.... After checking out how some of the art from previous sets, Masquerade seems quite underwhelming compared to most of the others. I feel bad now for not looking at the older sets beforehand. But what can you do? After not collecting cards for 20 years, of course you're gonna invest in the newest when you return. Oh well. I did order 50 151 Booster Packs (for that nostalgia hit), as well 36 boosters from Silver Tempest today which I can see have some really cool art. Which you seemed to put near the top.
It almost does not matter how crappy any of the S&V sets are, the gem rates are so low compared to those of the S&S sets, that all the S&V sealed product will likely perform very well… so stock up while the prices are still cheap.
It definitely matters how good the sets are. It doesn't really matter how hard it is to get a 10. More moonbreons than charizards but yet still more popular. Also the sir are extensive easy to grade. Only some of the illustration rares are hard to grade
The upcoming english 151 restock will be interesting. Might get super cheap. I only invested in german (small hope no reprint) and in japanese displays...lets see
@@user-fd2fd6lm1o sorry Daddy i can only talk for europe and we get a Poster collection 151 restock and a zapdos ex collection restock. I know the Storeowners I don't need an official announcement
Also the evolving skies Pokemon center etb with the eviloution on it is expensive but it’s a beautiful box to add to the collection and I’m positive a crispy sealed box would be good to invest in 💯
Agree with most , I think Darkness ablaze to the garbage, and shining fates (most printed set), I think battle styles I’d put up a level, then temporal forces I’d put in invest in box only, swap evolving skies with brilliant stars, and crown zenith with fusion strike. I would not put SV base that high either but these are all minor things and opinions, who knows . But valid stuff man, I like the takes on the market.
I agree about twilight masquerade. Looks like a weak set. If the cards are playable that may help the card values for a while, but for collectors it’s pretty lackluster.
Your take on kids aged 8 to 13 and their view on SV couldn't be more spot on. My 6 yr old daughter gets bored looking at her mothers Base master set, but can't get enough of my Paldea Evolved binder. That and Scarlet and Violet just became the 3rd highest grossing pokemon game of all time. I know where my 401k money is going.....
General rule of thumb in investing its best to diversify. But I always go for buy low to sell high. Buy Japanese 151 Scarlett and Violet, crown zenith, pradox rift and Paldea evolved. Imo crown zenith and 151 Japanese are so cheap right now and these set of cards are amazing. I can’t stress that enough.
I think the issue i have with lost, cz, and brilliant to a lesser extent is everyone is doing those plays. Good sets but almost to much supply for the demand especially cz. With what heppene with fusion and chilling people wernt ready but the other two people saw coming. I still think the plays are paldea, paradox, temporal, fusion, silver and to a lesser extent and brilliant. But in the long run most of these will do well.
Considering every single S/V booster box is under 100 bucks, excluding paldea, snagging a box of any of them will return profit and hold value. Look at sword and shield, most boxes were selling under 100 when they were releasing, and they’ve SKYROCKETED since. I’m a sealed collector myself, and even though I enjoyed opening sw/sh more, as a sealed collector i think S/V will hold more value overtime because there’s just SO MUCH to pull in comparison
Agree with most other then TM, I think the art is fantastic on the illustration rares, and the geometric style on others is really cool. 151 is still the best art though.
@@PokeBeardTCG Do you think it's a big problem? Some people will only care about hit rates, so SIR will be their chase, whereas I prefer the art so get to chase the mid board (which is much easier). I think it bolsters the set as a whole, plus the SIRs art is still really good. It's the gold cards that are awful in this one 😅
@ruthersplat I do. People dont want to spend hundreds opening for cheap illustration rares they can buy for a quarter of the price. I still think this set is solid. It's just definitely one of the worst S&V sets. The ogerpon art isn't good at all, and it's the mascot of the set.
Celebrations was really fun to set collect at the time it came out and I really thought it would have some investment power but my thoughts on that set have changed dramatically especially after everything you mentioned....with that ugly Pikachu symbol it feels like a Mcdonalds set to me now Lol
I agree with literally everything on this list minus 1 set, Paldean fates. It’s way better than that. Just my opinion. Oh and that Greninja from twilight Mask is a massive sleeper.
Personally every new set right now I would just buy a case of since you can currently get a case of twilight, rift and temp forces for like $700… A CASE!! Fast forward 2-3 years and each set will have exploded to $200-$300 a box and ppl will be scrambling for cash to get their hands on it
@@PokeBeardTCG I told a friend of mine to get what he can for what he wants and then just start where we are. Chalk up the past as a loss and learn from itn
I'm embarrassed to say this, but since I'm on disability, I can afford max at around $125+ per month or save for 2 month $250, what should I first buy? Do I aim to buy 1 box per month? Or save and buy 1 box every 2 month? Etbs? What should I buy I'm a beginner want to build up cases,boxes and I think etbs right???
My criteria for investing: 1. Does it have the most loved pokemon? 2. Does it have multiple chases? 3. Waifus bonus? 4. Special set or regular set? 5. If it checks all these boxes, case BB, Case PC ETB, or if you don't have that type of money, BB, Sleeved boosters, PC ETB.
I really liked this presentation. I think you should do it monthly. Every time you talk about twilight mascarade, I start laughing because I can tell you passionately dislike the set. I really hope I can save some money soon to buy a case of the Paldea evolved before it goes higher. I know there will be a reprint but people want to buy first print of items and if I can get them at 100 a box or lower, it’s perfect.
Am trying to get the Paldean fates master set. I collect shinies in game. Less of a. Money thing for me. ( with this set ) I love code cards too. Play the tcg.
@@PokeBeardTCG haha I hear you. I like an unhealthy amount of the cards in PF tho. I’ve honestly never opened hidden fates. My gf has tho. But thanks for the input !
@@PokeBeardTCGso true man, everything will obviously go up by something but theres just some sets where you notice people go crazier than ever over and they’re the gems to watch out for
My brother in chirst. Look at the 20th anniversary generations set and tell Me why they were going for $800 a both when celebrations was out. Those boxes are $600 today. Pokemon is wild theres things that you can predict like evolving skies because the set is killer. And then Theres sets like evolutions and generations which go up but the sets are nothing to write home about
@@userofsharingan I don't know where you're getting your prices from but the #2 card isn't $15. Charizard is $60, flareon is $40, sylveon is $30, gardevoir, pikachu and the other sylveon are $20. I also don't know what point you're trying to make.
Usually pretty much agree with you on everything but chilling reign is EASILY the best set from sword and shield behind evolving skies.. look at all the alt arts in the set the art works and pokemon are great in the set and its a little bigger of a set like evolving skies and don’t get me wrong fusion is in 3rd just for the fact of its missing a little substance it should have had a couple more alts in the set but evolving skies/chilling reign/fusion are the top 3 in my option and have all 3 completed master sets and lost and brilliant and celebrations had to make sure I had all the best sets from the area completed and in perfect condition tucked away
More isn't always better. The people have spoken. They like fusion strike more. Chilling reign has been out of stock for a long time, and it still can't surpass fusion. If they weren't galarian birds it wouldn't even be comparable. Chilling is pretty gen 8 heavy. Fusion is basically the first 3 generations. New pokemon will never beat old pokemon

Very nice!
If crown zenith wouldnt be printed so much it would be actually crazy good set. Probably after 5 more years it will go down as one of the best sets.
100% it's just gonna take a bit longer

@@PokeBeardTCG where would the most recent Japanese sets sit on your tier ranking? I've been tempted to extend beyond Japanese 151 for a few boxes
Can you do a video on which product out of the "empty your savings" has the best pulls
I think the Groudon illustration rare is going be the next card to take off in price. I won't be surprised if it hits 75-100 in the next 6 months. I also think that Chansey card from Twilight Masquerade is going to be a surprise hit.
For sure. I made a video like a week ago about all the cards that are going to boom. Both of those are on the list. I like the groudon way more then tyranitar but it's way easier to grade the groundon
@@PokeBeardTCG Cool, man. I'll check it out!
Bro I have invested in 151, lost origin, and crown zenith and all the cards are absolutely beautiful
Bro! But the Greninja SIR in TM is so good. Appreciate your content! Don't change anything my friend
It's definitely growing on me but not much else in the set is besides a few illustration rares. Thanks brother!
Crown zenith is probably my favorite set. It would be such a monster if they didn’t print it into the ground.
It's so good.
The moment its not availably anymore ita going up i think
Print run doesn't matter as long as there is demand, and CZ is probably the best set of all time. It will fly down the road, just give it a bit of patience.
Also the hit rate reminds me of Legendary Treasures, which everyone still remember for exactly that. Thats a big green light for me

I really like paradox rift but some people say it's one of the worst sv sets. Do you think it's worth investing in?
I just bought a booster box today. The people who say that don't have a clue what they're talking about. Sleeper set.
Another overlooked card in Paldea Evolved is the Heracross IR. I know a ton of folks who’s favorite pokemon is heracross and he’s a solid Gen 2 pokemon.
Unless it has a massive reprint, I think it’ll be one of the best SV sets for the nostalgia factor
whats the difference between illustration rare and special illustration rare
I believe Temporal Forces and 151 will be the best S&V sets in the future.
You do know value wise paldea evolved beats temporal forces and the set came out a long time ago. Temporal forces is pure Gen 9 with some remakes of popular pokemon that a lot of people actually hate.

I think Twilight Masquerade will do okay, invest in a box or two. They are going at wholesale prices and Illustration rare are stronger on this set.
All S&V sets will do okay
With singles should I get three of one card like the charizard from brilliant star for example
I always like getting multiples if I can. Gives your more options
Spot on, I do think Twilight Masquarade sucks and I won’t be spending a dime. Thanks
Just a few cards that I want otherwise yea definitely a pass
I would have liked if you would have shown the Charizards from Champions path when you were talking about them

@@CosmicEclipse12 Why only 151?
the other sets are pretty gen 9 heavy+i dont like the crown things and i am saving my money for EX-era or sun and moon stuff
The bird line came bc zard ex deck goes with it
So which set do you think i should invest in overall? Im looking to buy a case. (My budget is around $700)
Brilliant stars before it sells out on PC
General rule of thumb in investing its best to diversify.
But I always go for buy low to sell high. Buy Japanese 151 Scarlett and Violet, crown zenith, pradox rift and Paldea evolved.
Imo crown zenith and 151 Japanese are so cheap right now and these set of cards are amazing. I can’t stress that enough.
I think the issue i have with lost, cz, and brilliant to a lesser extent is everyone is doing those plays. Good sets but almost to much supply for the demand especially cz. With what heppene with fusion and chilling people wernt ready but the other two people saw coming. I still think the plays are paldea, paradox, temporal, fusion, silver and to a lesser extent and brilliant. But in the long run most of these will do well.
Yep, it's for sure gonna take longer than before.
Considering every single S/V booster box is under 100 bucks, excluding paldea, snagging a box of any of them will return profit and hold value.
Look at sword and shield, most boxes were selling under 100 when they were releasing, and they’ve SKYROCKETED since.

Agree with most other then TM, I think the art is fantastic on the illustration rares, and the geometric style on others is really cool. 151 is still the best art though.
Yea but every set has great illustration rares. If the best thing is illustration rares and not the Special Illustration rares we have a problem.
@@PokeBeardTCG Do you think it's a big problem? Some people will only care about hit rates, so SIR will be their chase, whereas I prefer the art so get to chase the mid board (which is much easier).

@ruthersplat I do. People dont want to spend hundreds opening for cheap illustration rares they can buy for a quarter of the price. I still think this set is solid. It's just definitely one of the worst S&V sets. The ogerpon art isn't good at all, and it's the mascot of the set.
Crown zenith has like the best artwork
Agreed
Celebrations was really fun to set collect at the time it came out and I really thought it would have some investment power but my thoughts on that set have changed dramatically especially after everything you mentioned....with that ugly Pikachu symbol it feels like a Mcdonalds set to me now Lol
Yea when you really look at it. It's not that great
If the booster boxes are too expensive go for the ETBs
Yep
I agree with literally everything on this list minus 1 set, Paldean fates. It’s way better than that. Just my opinion. Oh and that Greninja from twilight Mask is a massive sleeper.
Yea I did say I want to move it up to invest in a case.
Personally every new set right now I would just buy a case of since you can currently get a case of twilight, rift and temp forces for like $700… A CASE!! Fast forward 2-3 years and each set will have exploded to $200-$300 a box and ppl will be scrambling for cash to get their hands on it
100%. Especially sets that people don't want right now. Which is why I love paradox rift.
@@PokeBeardTCG I told a friend of mine to get what he can for what he wants and then just start where we are. Chalk up the past as a loss and learn from itn
So if you could only buy one booster box. Which one would it be?
Great question. This might be in my next what if Wednesday
I'm embarrassed to say this, but since I'm on disability, I can afford max at around $125+ per month or save for 2 month $250, what should I first buy? Do I aim to buy 1 box per month? Or save and buy 1 box every 2 month? Etbs? What should I buy I'm a beginner want to build up cases,boxes and I think etbs right???
There's no need to be embarrassed. I would do 1 booster box per month.
My criteria for investing: 1. Does it have the most loved pokemon? 2. Does it have multiple chases? 3. Waifus bonus? 4. Special set or regular set? 5. If it checks all these boxes, case BB, Case PC ETB, or if you don't have that type of money, BB, Sleeved boosters, PC ETB.
Solid
What sets do you agree and disagree with from PokeBeard's list?
Battle Styles
I love it
Let’s go beard! I’m growing a beard haha
Do it up!
@@PokeBeardTCG will do! Do you like dragon ball too?! Or just pokemon tcg?!
I went too heavy in Celebrations 😿.
It's okay. It's just gonna take some time.
what is the difference between a case and a few boxes
A case has 10 boxes. A few boxes is 2-3.
I really liked this presentation. I think you should do it monthly. Every time you talk about twilight mascarade, I start laughing because I can tell you passionately dislike the set. I really hope I can save some money soon to buy a case of the Paldea evolved before it goes higher. I know there will be a reprint but people want to buy first print of items and if I can get them at 100 a box or lower, it’s perfect.
Yea, I get heated every time i talk about it lol.
@@PokeBeardTCG I love it!
Temporal over paradox
You never know
Looks like you're going to dislike Twilight even more as app they've pulled the Loyal 3 cards, likely either for the 6.5 set or promos.
Wow that's rough. I did find it weird they were in this set
Am trying to get the Paldean fates master set. I collect shinies in game. Less of a. Money thing for me. ( with this set ) I love code cards too. Play the tcg.
I recommend collecting hidden fates then
@@PokeBeardTCG haha I hear you. I like an unhealthy amount of the cards in PF tho. I’ve honestly never opened hidden fates. My gf has tho. But thanks for the input !
LOL “Don’t actually empty your savings account.”
You never know lol. Some people take what I say very serious sometimes haha
Anything new isn’t worth much !! Anything old sells pretty good !!! The game is pretty simple 🙄
Tell that to evolving skies lol. Worth more than almost every sun and moon set and half of x&y.
@@PokeBeardTCGso true man, everything will obviously go up by something but theres just some sets where you notice people go crazier than ever over and they’re the gems to watch out for
I’ve recently made a big investment in sealed vaporeon, jolteon and flareon vmax boxes as they were slept on a bit and they’re so beautiful
Everything new turns to old at some point bro.
Paldean Fates came in clutch for me. Some gold cards. Special Illustration Mew. Charizard. Baby shiny pikachu too.
“It reminds me of a crappy prime card” 😂😭
😂😂
Oh crap I just emptied my savings!
😂
My brother in chirst. Look at the 20th anniversary generations set and tell
Me why they were going for $800 a both when celebrations was out. Those boxes are $600 today. Pokemon is wild theres things that you can predict like evolving skies because the set is killer. And then Theres sets like evolutions and generations which go up but the sets are nothing to write home about
Everything in pokemon did that. It was the boom. Generations is a great set.
@@PokeBeardTCG the chase card in the set is $60 and the #2 is $15. You can master the set for less than the price of one ETB.
@@userofsharingan incorrect. Generations has a radiant collection also
@@PokeBeardTCG I included them. The radiant collection is less than $200 with the evees making the bulk. The main set is also about $200.
@@userofsharingan I don't know where you're getting your prices from but the #2 card isn't $15. Charizard is $60, flareon is $40, sylveon is $30, gardevoir, pikachu and the other sylveon are $20. I also don't know what point you're trying to make.
Challenge collect base set in 1 week no buying just trading
I have base set complete a few times over
Noice
You're picks are always different then what's the "trend" setters say are the best
That's cuz it's my own opinion and I don't copy what everyone else is doing. Thanks for watching
If those arts were cool you wouldn’t have shown them haha
Silver tempest up to empty the savings
Solid set
I bought 4 etb os Brilliant Stars for 35 apeice
Not bad
Usually pretty much agree with you on everything but chilling reign is EASILY the best set from sword and shield behind evolving skies.. look at all the alt arts in the set the art works and pokemon are great in the set and its a little bigger of a set like evolving skies and don’t get me wrong fusion is in 3rd just for the fact of its missing a little substance it should have had a couple more alts in the set but evolving skies/chilling reign/fusion are the top 3 in my option and have all 3 completed master sets and lost and brilliant and celebrations had to make sure I had all the best sets from the area completed and in perfect condition tucked away
More isn't always better. The people have spoken. They like fusion strike more. Chilling reign has been out of stock for a long time, and it still can't surpass fusion. If they weren't galarian birds it wouldn't even be comparable. Chilling is pretty gen 8 heavy. Fusion is basically the first 3 generations. New pokemon will never beat old pokemon
Yeah spot on. Twighlight masquerade is so unappealing. Waste of a set
Agreed
