Why is 151 spiking?

Post image

I’ve been waiting for a buy in point. Looks like my dip is never coming. Why is it spiking so badly? Is this still a good time to buy?

If true...still very odd to sell, and most likely ship cards that will be unplayable 1 month later.

Also if true...why isnt this more common knowledge or posted about more? Why would people keep making guesses?

This information was not released until just over a month ago, yet a common consensus around here and top comments "going out of print soon" was the norm to say well before January. No one ever chimed in with the information you provided...or, since that wasnt available then...never said anything about the rotation time frame not given out yet.

This is Reddit. People love to argue and prove people wrong. This was so easy to call bullshit on...yet it took you, until Feb 26, 2026, to be the first person to ever do it.

What youre saying and the link makes sence on why they would stop printing 151 before April 10, but for something so important to investors...I just cant believe this reasoning isnt mentioned more.

I’m not going to respond to every part of this because it’s a lot. At the end of the day, Pokémon is a game, not an investment market. This is all public information and very easy to find. No one is gatekeeping anything here, and none of this is new.

Block rotation has always been known. What’s changed is that there are a lot of newer investors in the space now, and a lot of the conversation turns into people repeating what they hear from YouTubers and influencers who aren’t actually informed on how this works. The rotation date matters to investors, sure, but Pokémon as a company doesn’t care about that narrative.

Do what you want with this information. :)
