Cons Of Buying Xy Evolutions

1. The Price is Probably Still Too High

Despite being a much cheaper alternative to Base Set, considering how much Evolutions was printed and how many sealed booster boxes there are on the market, my gut tells me the price is still overinflated.

2. Questionable Print Quality

As I mentioned above, cards graded a 10 will hold their values well in my opinion. However, you have to be really lucky to pull perfect cards. Expect to see a lot of off centre cards if you plan on cracking open packs. Reverse holographic cards are also very hard to grade in a 10 because the holo area is so large, therefore prone to print lines and imperfections. If you plan to open and grade cards from Evolutions to turn a profit, you better be darn sure theyre mint!

3. More Charizards isnt Necessarily Better

Despite there being five Charizards in the set, its only really the Arita artwork that is well respected and valued in Evolutions. The other artworks just lack a bit of wow factor.

4. The Set Lacks The Big Three

Although Evolutions has the iconic Base Set Charizard artwork, it doesnt have the Blastoise or Venusaur. Instead there are modern Mega EX versions of these two Pokemon. In my opinion, its a bit of a shame as it would have been nice to collect all three.

5. Some Weird Additions

Pros Of Buying Xy Evolutions

1. Original Artwork

XY Evolutions contains many of the original artworks from Base Set. As such, this set offers huge nostalgic value.

2. Charizards Old & New

There are a whopping five different Charizard cards to collect, which will always be a hit among collectors:

#11 Charizard Holographic

#11 Charizard Reverse Holographic
#12 Charizard EX

3. Cards Graded a 10 Hold Their Value Well

It is very common to find cards in Evolutions that have poor centering. As such, it means its difficult to grade cards in a 10. Whilst this appears to be a negative, its actually not. Evolutions is a set with a very high grading population . If youre lucky enough to own perfect 10 cards, then theyll hold their value well. See PSA 10 prices here on eBay.

4. A Cheaper Alternative to Base Set

With Base Set booster boxes going for £15k-£30k over the past year, XY Evolutions are a considerably cheaper alternative if you want the fun of opening packs and seeing those original artworks again. Evolutions booster boxes currently sell for around £600-£700 on eBay . Dont get me wrong, this isnt exactly chump change, but its certainly a more cost effective way in.

5. The Mix of Old & New

The original artworks are a joy to pull, but there are also some wonderfully designed full art cards. My favourite are #106 Dragonite EX and #108 Mistys Determination. With Evolutions, I think Pokemon got the balance between old and new just right.
