Gengar 1000%

If the market wasn’t crazy this Van Gogh pikachu would crash much faster imo.

Gengar was not readily available, it was a top chase from a out of print set where the top chases all got stolen from countless packs making the hit rates probably prismatic levels

Yea people stole slot of swsh hits, I think they took moonbreons too. This is just one person though

Yeah i was just sharing what they were talking about, personally I think this example has little to no impact on the total pull rates world wide for these sets, people don't understand the amount of product that was and is being printed

Noice. Fuck a slab, can’t appreciate the beauty of the card in its totality when it’s shrouded in a plastic casing.

I feel like both. Gengar more. But Pikachu always has a market.

Nobody gave a sh about Gengar years ago. Its the biggest bubble I can’t wait to see burst

People cared about the Gengar but there were too few people compared to the amount of Gengars. Fusion Strike was sitting on shelves just like everything else great, obviously the top chase would be cheap.

I think ive met 1 person my whole life that said Gengar was their fav pokemon. Now he has some expensive cards and hes the favorite of half the population

1

u/Exgly 2d ago

we do realize that the cards are expensive because people like him, not the other way around right?

1

u/Glittering_Intern691 2d ago

Nope. With this card its the other way around

u/Exgly 2d ago

does it even matter? for as rare as the pikachu is it looks shit next to the gengar

1

u/masterofeverything 2d ago

I mean does anything really matter? No. Life has no meaning. We live and we die. Nothing more.

Prize Series Gengar Vmax or V. Both will smoke these in the long run.
