To effectively meet customer demand, it’s essential to first understand it. To assist you in tracking what’s trending among players and collectors, we’ve compiled two downloadable CSV reports showcasing the top-selling Pokémon cards from the past month.
These reports provide insights into the highest-selling Pokémon cards on the TCGplayer Marketplace from February 1 to 28, 2026. Each card is identified by its name and set; cards from various sets are treated as distinct entities, irrespective of shared names. However, we do not differentiate between sold copies based on condition (such as Near Mint or Lightly Played) or by printing variations (such as Foil).
We categorized the reports into two pricing segments: cards with an average sale price of $50.00 or more, and those ranging from $1.00 to $49.99.
Here are five highlights from each report.
Top Selling Pokémon Cards: $50 or More
#1 Mew ex – 053 | Set: Scarlet & Violet Promo Cards | Average Sale Price: $57.67
This promo card was originally included in the 151 Ultra-Premium Collection. Following significant buyouts in 2025, February has seen steady sales with only one instance where the average number of copies per buyer surpassed 4.0.
#2 Charmander – 168/165 | Set: Scarlet & Violet—151 | Average Sale Price: $68.09
Apart from Mew ex, the $50+ category was mainly filled with cards from Scarlet & Violet—151, many of which are increasing in value. Charmander’s price escalated from $67 on February 16 to $85 by the 28th as availability dwindles.
#3 Squirtle – 170/165 | Set: Scarlet & Violet—151 | Average Sale Price: $62.39
Squirtle started February priced at $58 and reached $88 by the month’s end.

Zapdos experienced an increase from $66 to $86 during February.

Blastoise saw the largest price surge, climbing from $91 at the beginning of February to $150 by the end.
Remarkably, these upward trends weren’t triggered by a major influx of orders, as sales volume remained fairly steady. It appears that collectors are eager to invest in these highly sought-after cards from this celebrated set.
