12% of all pokemon cards ever were printed in the last year.
YUP.
That is a MASSIVE AMOUNT. and STILL supply cannot keep up with the massive demand. The last card shortage only lasted a year and now we're going on 2 with no signs of slowing down.
I remember pokemon company international putting out similar figured in 2022. (This could be off some) i believe at the time, 25% of all pokemon cards ever were printed between 2020 - 2022.
So what does all this mean?
A big L for investor bros long term who just got into the hobby.
Their scarlet & violet era cards just wont hold up as well in the grand scheme of things compared to sun & moon and earlier because theres just waaaaaaaaaaaaay more of it. (and I am talking when were looking back 10 years from now there is gonna be way more SV era cards than anything else)
Hope the bubble burst soon lol
Card production will continue to ramp up as they're building new factories for card production.
