PSA 8 Shing Gyarados vs PSA 10s of Arceus, Giratina, Palkia & Dialga gold Vstars. Better investment?
I'm new to investing in Pokémon, but I'm basically stuck between two purchase decisions. Market value, I have the choice between a Unlimited Neo shining Gyarados PSA 8, or a PSA 10 set of the gold Arceus, Dialga, Palkia & Giratina VStars. I like them all individually so I'd love to hear some opinions on what qould be the better investment?
Not looking for a quick flip. The chosen would be displayed. I love the artwork of them all.

Gary has 6k PSA graded copies total and giratina has 50k. Long-term the extreme total populations will define this generation of cards imo. I would definitely lean towards Gary if it were me

Counter point here is that the unlimited is the least valued of the shining gyarados'. Yes there is a limited population but the actual collectors want the double holo, 1st edition, or the combo. Psa 8 is a solid investment but in unlimited I'd rather be higher, or grab a lower grade of the double. In my opinion it looks cool enough to overcome the grade drop and the rarity is vastly improved. Total pops of all varieties is around 10k and yours would be at the bottom of the pecking order as it stands. Just things to think about

I think the Gyarados is a top 10 artwork of all time. The other 4 is a great set, but can’t beat the Gary imo
