How to read this forecast

The fan shows where the forecast puts the price in 60 days; the lines from today to then are drawn, not forecast day by day.

Assumes the whole market keeps rising about 3.9% every 60 days, as it has lately. That part is a guess from the recent past, not a prediction — the 'vs market' figure above does not depend on it.

Prices here are TCGplayer's market price, which is an average of recent sales, so it trails a real move by a few weeks. Part of any short-term forecast is that delay catching up — visible in the chart, but not something you can buy at.

Beating the market, or just riding it?

Moving with the market

Over the last 2 months this card fell 1.6%, while the typical card we track rose 4.6%: it finished 6.0% behind the market, inside the 10% either way we count as moving with it. Its price has mostly been riding the market.

Describes the last 2 months, not what happens next. Not investment advice.

Is this card interesting right now?

Ordinary - 50 out of 100

It ranks above 50% of the cards we track. The score describes the conditions around the card today - how sellers are pricing it, how it is trending, how steadily it trades. Its weights were tuned on how cards moved over the following 60 days, so a high score is a tendency across many cards, not a forecast for this one - and it says nothing about whether you will enjoy owning the card.

Why is it interesting?

Very steady price and softer recent move than most

The price moves in small, calm steps rather than lurching around. The recent move is within this card's normal range, but weaker than most cards' moves this month.

Is it becoming more popular?

No - losing ground

Compared with the Pokemon market as a whole, so a rising tide does not count as popularity. In this market these trends have tended to keep going rather than reverse.

Past month-1.7%
Past 2 months-6.0%
Past 4 months-0.6%

Is it expensive or cheap?

$1,024 - expensive for its set

At $1,024 it is one of the priciest cards in its set - number 1 of 501 by price. It costs more than 97% of other Secret Rare cards we track. It is at or near its highest price of the past year.

What makes this card unusual?

Secret Rare - a scarcer rarity, the most valuable card in its set

623 tracked cards share this rarity (1% of all cards we track). It is the single most expensive card of the 501 we track in this set. This is the Holofoil printing, which is priced as a completely separate market from the other printings of the same artwork.

Could you actually buy or sell it?

Yes, with patience

The price changed in 41% of our checks over the past year across 365 observations. TCGplayer's market price only updates when a copy sells, so a low figure means the price shown may be stale and any trend reading is built on very few real sales.

How does the grading fee compare?

Small fee versus raw price

A roughly $22.00 grading fee is 2% of the $1,024 raw price. Raw price plus fee comes to about $1,046, before shipping, insurance or selling costs. That is a cost comparison, not an estimate of a graded copy's value. We track raw ungraded prices only - no graded sales and no population data. We cannot assess this copy's condition or tell you what a PSA 10 is worth. Check condition and comparable graded sales before deciding whether grading would pay off.
