2018 Pokémon cards worth money

The most valuable 2018 Pokémon card is Lillie 151/156 from Ultra Prism, at about $461 for a near-mint raw copy and $1,475 in a PSA 10 slab. 2018 gave us Ultra Prism, Forbidden Light, Celestial Storm, Dragon Majesty, McDonald's Collection 2018 and Lost Thunder: 847 English cards, of which 118 sell for $20 or more raw today. Every one is priced below from real sales, raw and graded, chase cards first, so you can check a stack of 2018 pulls against what they actually fetch.

For a modern year like 2018, the money sits in the top rarities: the alt arts, illustration rares, gold and rainbow secret rares and each set’s hyper-rare chase. Regular holos and reverses are mostly playset money. Condition still decides everything: a raw price here is for a near-mint copy, and a PSA 10 of the same card can be several times more. These sets sit in the Sun & Moon era; the year is the set’s English release date, not the copyright line on the card.

Common questions

Are 2018 Pokémon cards worth anything?

Some are. 118 of the 847 English cards released in 2018 sell for $20 or more raw today, topped by Lillie 151/156 at about $461. Most commons and uncommons are bulk unless they are gem mint.

What is the most valuable 2018 Pokémon card?

Lillie 151/156 from Ultra Prism, at about $461 raw and $1,475 in PSA 10.

How do I tell if my 2018 Pokémon card is worth money?

Find the set symbol and card number (the set symbols chart helps), match the card here, then check the printing (holo, reverse holo or the special rarity) and the condition: prices are for near-mint copies, and a played card sells for less. The price checker walks through it step by step.

Is the year printed on the card the release year?

Not reliably. The copyright line is the artwork’s copyright and can predate the English set by a year or more, and reprints keep the original line. These pages use the English release date of the set.
