I wasn’t planning on buying more Pokémon cards this week, but then I stumbled upon the Scarlet & Violet – Surging Sparks Booster Bundle still in stock on Amazon for $45.02. The recent massive Pokémon TCG restock couldn’t have come at a better time, coinciding with the Amazon Spring Sale. With so many hot sets available, my resolve to resist crumbled faster than a 60 HP Basic facing a 390-damage Hydreigon ex.
What makes the Surging Sparks set stand out is its delightful chaos. It's packed with chase cards that are worthy of being slabbed, like the $432 Pikachu ex Special Illustration Rare. No typo there—the electric mouse is not only a collector's dream but also a powerhouse on the battlefield. Topaz Bolt can sweep the board clean, and Resolute Heart makes it incredibly tough to knock out.

Then there's the Latias ex and Latios combo, which feels like a scene straight out of a romance movie with their matching connected artwork. Latias, being the rarer and pricier twin at over $200, seems to carry the weight of big sibling responsibilities. Milotic ex, on the other hand, showcases stunning light and shadow play, while also strategically countering Tera Pokémon.
My personal favorite is Ceruledge. Its neon aesthetic is captivating, and I mean that in the best way possible. This card marks the first time Ceruledge has been truly valuable, and illustrator Rond truly deserves applause. Or at least a coffee. Despite Ceruledge not being a top-tier competitive Pokémon, this art makes it a must-have for me.
For collectors, the potential value is undeniable. For players, some of these cards can dominate the battlefield. And if you're simply drawn to shiny things and the excitement of risking $45 on cardboard, you're in good company. I've already opened one box and am now persuading myself that I "need" another for the sake of research.The bundle comes with six booster packs, so there's no guarantee of hitting the big cards, but given how quickly these are selling out, it's wise not to delay. After all, Pikachu won't pull itself.
