The Pokémon TCG market is wild right now. Some cards are printing money while others are tanking. Here's what actually moved and the patterns behind it:

1. Alt Art Trainers from older sets — Everyone was sleeping on these. Low print runs + increasing collector demand = easy 3-5x gains if you bought at release.

2. Japanese exclusive promos — The gap between JP and English card prices is closing fast. Smart collectors are importing before the market catches up.

3. PSA 10 vintage holos — The grading backlog is clearing and gem mint copies are getting rarer. If you're sitting on raw vintage, now's the time to send them in.

4. Special Art Rares from Scarlet & Violet — The new pull rates are brutal, which means supply is low. Early SARs from SV sets are already climbing.

5. Sealed product from 2020-2022 — Everyone ripped everything during the COVID boom. Now sealed boxes from that era are drying up fast.

The pattern? Low supply + growing demand + a catalyst (set rotation, nostalgia wave, influencer attention). If you can spot these three things converging on a card or product, you're early.
