When the Pok\u00e9mon Card 151 [SV2a] expansion set was first released in June 2023, it sent shockwaves throughout the Pok\u00e9mon TCG community\u2014especially among older players and collectors who’d been Pok\u00e9mon fans for decades. By playing to these players’ and collectors’ sense of nostalgia, Creatures Inc. scored an absolute megahit. Cards and booster packs from Pok\u00e9mon Card 151 [SV2a] ended up becoming 2023’s biggest sellers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Given such demand, many had been wondering when the next mass restock of Pok\u00e9mon Card 151 [SV2a] will take place. Well, that question has now been answered\u2014according to Pok\u00e9mon Japan, an upcoming new print run will see Pok\u00e9mon Card 151 [SV2a] restocked in stores across Japan starting from May 2024.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Almost immediately after Pok\u00e9mon Japan’s announcement, prices of Pok\u00e9mon Card 151 [SV2a] booster boxes began to drop. For example, the price of a Pok\u00e9mon Card 151 [SV2a] booster box on the SNKRDUNK app<\/a> is now 14,999 JPY (~US$99), down from 20,000 JPY (~US$132) at its peak. This price is expected to further fall as the reprint date nears.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
