It’s been nearly two weeks since Heat Wave Arena [SV9a]<\/a> launched in stores across Japan and Pok\u00e9mon Center Japan. Additionally, the Pok\u00e9mon Center Japan online store has yet to launch the set, as its release has been postponed to an undisclosed date. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Many of our card prices on the SNKRDUNK App have once again proven to be among the most affordable, if not the most, in the Pok\u00e9mon TCG market. That being said, the prices of cards from the Heat Wave Arena [SV9a] set have largely stabilized, with some performing better than others based on the sales transactions observed on our platform.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This card beautifully captures the deep bond between Cynthia, the Sinnoh Champion, and her trusted Roserade. The illustrator of the artwork, Rika, brings out a mesmerizing atmosphere with vivid colors that make Roserade\u2019s floral elements pop against the background, along with Cynthia. This card is just so eye-catching. No wonder it is one of the most picked-up cards of Heat Wave Arena [SV9a] on our app.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

6) Ethan\u2019s Adventure (SAR)<\/strong> 089\/063 (49 Copies Sold)<\/strong><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

This came as a surprise to many, as it was expected to be one of the most sought-after cards in the Heat Wave Arena [SV9a] set. However, that doesn\u2019t seem to be the case for now. That said, we believe its ranking at 6th place is primarily due to its high price within the set or the possibility that most collectors secured their copies early upon release. If you are still eyeing this, be sure to grab one while prices are still low!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

5) Ethan\u2019s Ho-Oh ex (SAR)<\/strong> 086\/063 (57 Copies Sold)<\/strong><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The artwork of this card masterfully combines nostalgia with epic storytelling, making it a must-have for fans of Johto\u2019s legendary lore. Surprisingly, it ranks 5th out of the seven despite being a SAR card of Heat Wave Arena [SV9a]. Like Ethan\u2019s Adventure, the primary reason for its placement seems to be its acquisition cost. A raw copy of the card costs as low as 17,620 JPY (~US$118) now.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

4) Misty\u2019s Lapras (AR)<\/strong> 072\/063 (60 Copies Sold)<\/strong><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Snatching the 4th position on the ranking by just four cards more is Misty\u2019s Lapras (AR). This card from Heat Wave Arena [SV9a] transports us back to Misty\u2019s adventures, evoking memories of her time as the Cerulean Gym Leader and her journey alongside Ash in the Pok\u00e9mon anime. As one of the most popular “waifu” characters in the Pok\u00e9mon TCG, it’s no surprise that this card has seen a high volume of transactions on our app since its release. Paired with the fan-favorite Pok\u00e9mon Lapras, it has secured the 4th spot on our list.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Securing the 2nd spot is Ethan\u2019s Typhlosion (AR) card from Heat Wave Arena [SV9a]. This card taps into the nostalgia of both Ethan and the Typhlosion line, making it highly appealing and deserving of its place in the top 3.

A highly sought-after “waifu” and confused duck. Coming in first place for the most transacted card on our app is none other than Misty\u2019s Psyduck (AR). This card perfectly blends nostalgia and humor, making it a favorite among collectors. Psyduck\u2019s fanbase rivals that of Pikachu, and with Misty, its iconic Trainer, added to the mix, it\u2019s no wonder this card has become the top choice for transactions on our platform.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
