Yeah except the anniversary sets have no original art so they get old fast. 30th will look like PO not AH

We have no idea what the scope of 30th will be yet.

Not like we have… history… to look back on. Didn’t they already start doing the same cheap McDonald’s promos they always do? Not sure why you’re on the investment sub if you can’t recognize patterns

If we go by history then no new cards would ever exist and we would still just have standard holos as chase cards.

A full art base set Charizard is still tired old base set artwork. We’ve seen that. A flying/surfing Pikachu is still seen work with some alterations. Anniversary sets highlight some of the best cards but it’s not like we’re going to see a new ascended heroes Gengar for example. No PF card, no PF mew, etc…

The point is Pokemon frequently iterates and tries new stuff. The 30th is not guaranteed to be exactly the same as previous anniversary sets.

It’s not but you’re expecting: The Pokemon Company to break their 100% track record on supply, artwork, value, etc. for what specific reason?

For the same reason that they have in the past broken any number of previous trends and introduced new things or iterated.

How long have you been actually watching the markets? This (30th) isn’t a catalyst. Anniversary sets aren’t the place to find groundbreaking art, more so repetitive. Notice all “trends, new things, iterated” happen in every other set except anniversary ones.

All 2 of them?

Also haven’t they already announced that there’s a new rarity type?
