>>45110922>Check Charizards and Typhlosions from wotc era, Neo Umbreon, Charizard, Typhlosion, and Umbreon are all popular Pokémon. On top of that, Umbreon and Typhlosion cards (especially Umbreon) saw more play during those days than Charizard.
>Aquapolis H-Holos, the Shiny Neo cards and various promo cards like Birthday Pikachu, Venusaur PromoYeah, all of those are actually rare. WotC's eReader sets are notoriously low in print due to rushing to get them out before their license expired. Shining Pokemon were secret rares, and Birthday Pikachu came out via a mail-in campaign near the end of 2000.
>and Clefable ReleasesClefable was highly sought after back in the day because of how nearly broken it was and how versatile it was to fit in almost any deck.
>Graded first editions can go for a grand.For example, a non-graded, non-first edition of a shiny neo card often brings up to three times what an unlimited base charizard does. And that's not even 1st edition.
That's because they're actually rare. Base Charizard's rarity doesn't compare to a secret rare Shining Pokemon.
