How to read these figures

Checked on 12 October, card language: Japanese, sellers: Worldwide, in seller-declared Near Mint condition. A card’s price here is the price of its cheapest copy.

147 catalogue cards have no usable Near Mint price in this market. They remain in the list and are not counted as zero in the figures.

An entry point is a moment when starting this set costs less than it did a month ago, while buyers are still around. Over the past month, too many of its cards have dropped for it to be luck, and their total has dropped with them. This week, it isn’t bouncing back. Yet its copies still leave the listings at least as fast as the rest of the market’s.

    How we count it

    This selection excludes commons, uncommons and cards whose rarity is unknown.

    A card counts as priced when an observation that is still current contains at least one Near Mint copy for sale in this market.

    Including all rarities: a median of €3.80 across 111 priced cards.

  • One of each

    €1,689.13

    If you bought one copy of each of the 111 priced cards, you’d pay €1,689.13 altogether. That’s 111 cards out of 258.

    How we count it

    Every day, we look at which copies leave the listings. A copy that’s gone may have sold, or its seller may have taken it down: we only count those that do not reappear in subsequent observations.

    The pokoSCORE rates each card from 1 to 99 by how fast its copies leave. This bar compares standard Near Mint cards in the same language and seller area.

  • Volatility

    5%

    Volatility tells you how much prices move around. Over the last month, on an ordinary day, the price of one of these cards sat about 5% away from its average. For a €100 card, that’s roughly €5 either way.

    How we count it

    We measured it on 111 cards, and the dearest ones count for more.
