Market outlook
Stable Outlook 6/10
Consistent low-volume sales with no major spikes; supported by promo accessibility offsetting collector interest[1][4].
Next months. Stable pricing with minor fluctuations from deck meta shifts
Long term. Gradual appreciation if Mega Evolution archetype gains tournament play, otherwise holds steady

Collector notes
Condition. Inspect centering on holo foil patterns, check for print lines on edges, surface scratches on glossy full art, and whitening on corners/edges common in promo holos.
Storage. Use penny sleeves and semi-rigid top loaders; store in cool, dry place away from sunlight to prevent foil fading; avoid stacking without dividers.
Authenticity. Verify holo pattern alignment and text font matching official scans; check for correct weight and thickness; use UV light for hidden security features on ex cards; cross-reference with TCGPlayer or Limitless TCG images.
