TCG: Pokemon Scarlet and Violet 151: Most expensive cards, booster bundle & more

Pokemon Scarlet and Violet 151 was released on September 22, 2023, and included the entire lineup of Generation 1 Pocket Monsters. This included cards that were no longer able to be printed, like Kadabra, finally making a comeback. However, some fans may not know exactly what’s in the set, or what the best cards to hunt down will be. Now that the set has been out for a couple of months, it’s time to look at everything in it.

In addition to the full list of Pokemon Scarlet and Violet 151 cards, we’ll also highlight the most expensive ones. Many of those cards will be desirable for a few reasons: either they are incredibly powerful cards, or the art alone has made them valuable additions to any player’s collection.

Pokemon Scarlet and Violet 151 is an interesting set. Instead of creating a series of incredible new cards, based on the latest generation, it’s a trip back in time. For older fans, it’s a fun walk down memory lane. It even features Kadabra, who hasn’t seen a printing since the early 2000s.

It also features a selection of useful trainer cards, using important characters like Bill, Erika, and Giovanni - who was one of the most influential Pocket Monster trainers in the franchise’s history. Fans of the card game will also have a small selection of alternate art cards to look out for, for both trainer cards and the Pokemon themselves.

Shocking nobody, the most valuable cards in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet 151 are the various alternate art cards. However, what is interesting is that only one of the “Waifu cards” is in the top 10 most valuable cards as of January 2024 - Erika’s Invitation. It’s a great card though, and is worth what people will pay for it.

As we saw in the most-graded Pocket Monster cards, Charizard is still the king of Pokemon. In the Pokemon Scarlet and Violet 151 set, the most valuable card is Charizard EX, valued at over $100 USD. Here are the most valued cards in January 2024, according to TCGPlayer.

The most valuable cards are as follows:

Erika’s Invitation (Illustration Rare): $20.75
Bulbasaur (Illustration Rare): $23.92
Charmander (Illustration Rare): 24.50
Squirtle (Illustration Rare): $25.00
Alakazam EX (Special Illustration Rare): $25.88
Charizard EX (Ultra Rare): $34.98
Zapdos EX (Special Illustration Rare): $36.00
Blastoise EX (Special Illustration Rare): $43.01
Venusaur EX (Special Illustration Rare): $43.99
Charizard EX (Special Illustration Rare): $109.99

Pokemon Scarlet and Violet 151 booster bundle: How to get & price

Pokemon Scarlet and Violet 151 also features a Booster Bundle, but that might be a little more difficult to get. The box comes with 6 booster packs of this expansion, and normally retails on the Pokemon website for $26.94. However, you cannot buy one on the website right now, as they’re marked unavailable.

That price will likely remain the same in most storefronts, unless they’re being sold on secondary markets or your local TCG shop. Also unavailable on Amazon, there are Pokemon Scarlet and Violet 151 booster bundles being sold by individual people for around $40 USD.

This includes TCGPlayer.com, which has Booster Bundles for $39.99, which is nearly twice the asking price on the Pokemon website. However, you can purchase the Ultra-Premium Collection on Amazon. It features the following items, and retails for $99.99:

1 etched foil promo card featuring Mew ex
6 damage-counter dice
2 plastic condition markers
1 deck box
1 metallic coin featuring Mew
1 etched metal card featuring Mew ex
1 playmat
16 booster packs from Pokémon TCG: Scarlet & Violet—151
1 full-art foil promo card featuring Mewtwo
A code card for Pokemon TCG Live

Pokemon Scarlet and Violet 151 is a tribute to the classic beginnings of the Pocket Monsters franchise, featuring all the monsters from the original Generation 1 (Red/Blue/Green/Yellow). Fans of the original run will want to pick this series up for themselves.
