Overshadowed by flashier chase cards like Umbreon VMAX and Giratina V, Mew VMAX from Fusion Strike has quietly climbed in price. In 2025, is it finally ready for a breakout — or is this its peak?
Once a flagship chase card, the Rainbow Charizard VMAX from Darkness Ablaze has been largely forgotten — but in 2025, its low price, nostalgia factor, and iconic brand could be setting the stage for a surprise comeback.
Gold Secret Rares usually fade fast — but Giratina V from Lost Origin has proven to be an exception. With stunning art, competitive value, and consistent grading demand, it’s one of the few gold cards holding strong in 2025.
Lugia V from Silver Tempest was one of the final major chase cards of the Sword & Shield era. With striking artwork and launch-week hype, it soared past $300 raw — but how’s it holding up now, and is it still a long-term buy?
