Why Pokémon Cards?

Pokémon is the largest media franchise in the world and has shown stable growth for decades. The card game has a fanbase that spans countries and generations, and with the Pokémon company set to develop Chinese and Thai-language editions in the next year, the market is poised for even more growth. Thanks to their proven recession and inflation resistance [citation], Pokémon cards can form an important part of a diversified investment portfolio.

What do we look for?

There are three factors that influence the value of a Pokémon card: the condition, the scarcity, and the desirability of a card.

Condition

Cards are graded on a scale from 1 to 10 by a third-party authenticator

Scarcity

The number of cards on the market is influenced by its rarity in its initial print run and its age

Desirability

Some cards are more desirable among collectors based on features like their uniqueness, the featured Pokémon, or the artistic style
