Night Stretcher Gold
Things do not exactly begin in exciting fashion when it comes to the tenth-highest-priced card in Surging Sparks (but they get better fast, promise!). God knows why anyone’s paying $26 for a gold version of a bland Trainer card, with the useful but not exciting ability to pull a Pokémon or Energy card from your discard pile. While gold cards used to hold some collectability, that faded with Sword & Shield, with TPCi desperately trying to reinvigorate interest with a series of quickly abandoned alternatives. (Those green and gold ones? Bleurgh.)
Even sillier, there’s a much nicer Alolan Exeggutor ex gold card that’s in 12th place, at $23, and Night Stretcher is even out-pricing the Ultra Rare version of the Pikachu ex card everyone’s going so nuts over, which is in 11th place at $24. Ludicrous.
