Top 10 World’s Most Expensive Pokémon Cards 2022

PCG or Pokemon Card Game is the game of cards that was created after the making of the video game. They were first published in the year 1996 in Japan. The name “Pokemon” came from the Roman word for “Pocket Monsters.” The character of Pokemon itself is fictional and there are hundred of them in the gaming field. The very first one of them was called Bulbasaur, picture below, which is a blend word of “bulb” and “dinosaur.” It first appeared in Japan in the year 1996 in the game called Pocket Monsters Red and Green. These characters then spread from the video games to the card games moving to different countries of the world. Many of these packs are very expansive due to the story related to them or their rarity, anyway, these are the top ten that might cost you up to thousands bucks.

10 Pokemon Ex Cards

These packs made fame with the their two letters EX. They may cost you between 25 and 35 dollars. They are not very rare like the Pikachu or the Raichu but still some will take a $30 for expensive.

9 Southern Island Cards

Only 18 copies of the Southern Island Set Cards are in circulation. The rarity and the story behind the packs will cost you hundreds of dollars. These rare packs were made only after the cartoon movie Pokeman, hence such a few number. The sole reason was a kind of advertising, so the packs were not a goal in themselves.
