The most recently released core series games, Pokémon Sword and Shield, were released worldwide on the Nintendo Switch on November 15, 2019.
The reason for the difference in prices is because the Japanese Pokemon community has relatively fewer collectors and more players, which leads to a higher demand for Trainer cards and playable Pokemon staple cards (cards that are used in nearly every deck) for deckbuilding, whereas the pull rates for EX cards are much

Pokémon cards are collectibles, and many sets went out of print years ago. Because of this, the investment model with Pokémon cards is exceedingly simple: After purchasing a rare card, the longer you hold on to it, the more profit you'll make when you decide to sell.
One of the best reasons to buy booster boxes is to get a better distribution of cards. Imagine there are 220 cards in a set. In that set, there is somewhere around 70 rare cards, 70 uncommon cards, and 80 common cards.
When purchasing loose cards, make sure to research what you are buying, check the indicators (years, artwork) to make sure you are not getting scammed. The fake Pokémon cards are easily spotted, you can see through them, although there are some impressive forgeries of Charizard and the Illustrator Pikachu.

You can sell Pokemon cards through local ads (living in a big city is favourable) or through eBay. Sell Pokemon cards as a lot. Bunching Pokemon cards together and selling them as a lot will usually result in a quicker but cheaper sale. By listing valuable Pokemon cards individually you can get much more profit.

Probably the hardest to find and most sought-after Gold Star Pokémon card is a Japanese Espeon Star. Members of the Japanese Daisuki club had to earn enough points through various activities to earn a shiny Espeon card.
Perhaps the reason why Dedenne-GX is the best card of Sun & Moon Unbroken Bonds is because it has an ability that draws cards. Tingly Return also does 50 damage for LC, but also paralyzes the Defending Pokemon AND puts this Pokémon and all cards attached to it onto your hand.
The reason it is the most expensive is for a variety of reasons. First of all the 1st edition charizard is NOT the most expensive. The SHADOWLESS first edition is the rarest card in the set, going at around 1000 USD. A shadow less charizard is like a regular charizard, but not shadow on the picture.
