Pokemon cards: rare and most expensive Pokemon TCG

There’s one metric above all else when it comes to Pokemon cards: value. The Pokemon Trading Card Game might have been around for two decades, but it’s just as popular as ever. People still play it as a game, collectors still covet rare Pokemon cards, and some go for a ridiculous price at auction. 

If you’ve been rummaging around in your closet and you’ve found a rare Pokemon card, you’re probably looking to find out if it’s going to make you rich. While the answer to that question is likely “no”, there’s no harm in checking if you have one of the most expensive Pokemon cards in existence, is there? 

There are two main factors that make Pokemon cards increase in value: rarity and condition. If your card is rare and pristine, it’s probably worth some money. You’re a step closer to Logan Paul turning up at your house with $3.5 million. Tasty. 

With it being a market, these prices are always estimates, based on historic auction sales and other factors, so the values listed here aren’t ironclad. However, they should give you a good idea about just how much your Pokemon cards are worth. Let’s take a look at some of the most valuable Pokemon cards around.
