Daily Market Update: January 29, 2026
Hey there, fellow Pokémon TCG collectors! Welcome back to our daily market analysis blog. Today, we're diving into the latest price movements in the world of Pokémon Trading Card Game (TCG). If you're new around here, don't worry – I've got the scoop on what's hot and what's not.
If you checked your collection this morning, you might have noticed some pretty exciting price jumps. Let's take a look at the top gainers from today's market:
* Brock's Zubat [Nivi City Gym] #1/27: This card is making waves, folks! With a staggering 405.9% increase, it's clear that collectors are loving this dark-type Pokémon. Is it the rarity of the Nivi City Gym promo or the card's overall appeal that's driving the price up? Whatever it is, we're here for it!
* Warp Point [Paul Atanassov] #88: This card might seem like a random booster pick-up, but its 226.6% surge tells us otherwise. Could it be the hype around Paul's deck or something else entirely?
* Brock's Sandshrew [Nivi City Gym] #3/27: Another Nivi City Gym promo is making headlines, this time with a 132.6% price jump! Is it the card's versatility in the current metagame that's driving the value up?
* Plusle #63: This card might not be as rare as some of its peers, but its 128.1% increase says otherwise. Could it be the growing popularity of Plusle decks or something else?
* Chesnaught Break #15: Last but not least, we have Chesnaught Break with a whopping 120.7% price surge! Is this card's increased presence in competitive play driving up its value?
Now, let's talk about the cards that aren't doing so well...
Notable Losers
* Booster Pack: With a staggering -98.2% drop, it seems like collectors are getting tired of booster packs for now.
* Dragonair [1st Edition] #37: This card is taking a hit, with a 97.2% decrease. Could it be the decreased demand for first edition cards or something else?
* Hitmontop [1st Edition] #56: Hitmontop's value is also plummeting, with a -87% drop.
* Brock's Sandslash: This card is losing steam, dropping by 86.7%.
* Nidorina #30: Rounding out the losers, Nidorina's value has decreased by 81.1%.
So, what does this mean for collectors like you? Well, it seems like some cards are getting a boost from competitive play and hype, while others are taking a hit due to decreased demand. If you're looking to capitalize on these trends, keep an eye out for:
* Brock's Zubat: This card might be worth considering for your collection – or even building around!
* Plusle: Don't sleep on this card just yet; it could make a great addition to your deck.
* Warp Point: If you're feeling adventurous, consider picking up some Warp Points to add to your collection.
That's all for today, folks! Stay tuned for more market updates and analysis as we continue to navigate the ever-changing world of Pokémon TCG.
