The ’s upcoming set has created a serious buzz, so collectors will likely want to keep an eye on prices for its most sought-after cards.
Because the set includes new Terastal Pokémon ex versions of Eevee and its Eeveelutions, many casual players may also be interested in picking up a card with cool art of some fan-favorite Pokémon.
