Pokémon TCG Restocks: Amazon Has Surging Sparks Booster Bundles in Stock Right Now

I wasn’t planning to buy more Pokémon cards this week. Then I saw that Scarlet & Violet – Surging Sparks Booster Bundle was somehow still in stock on Amazon for $45.02 following its massive Pokémon TCG restock. The restock has come at a great time, with the Amazon Spring Sale in full swing, there are plenty of hot sets to pick up while stock lasts. Suddenly, my willpower crumbled like a 60 HP Basic tackling a 390-damage Hydreigon ex.

My favorite? This Surging Sparks set is chaos in the best way. You’ve got chase cards that deserve to be slabbed, like the $432 Pikachu ex Special Illustration Rare. That’s not a typo. The little electric mouse is putting in work as both a collectible and a monster in battle. Topaz Bolt deletes nearly anything from the board, and Resolute Heart makes it annoyingly hard to knock out.

Then there’s the Latias ex and Latios combo, pulling a full-on romance movie moment with matching connected artwork. Latias is the rarer and, apparently, the more expensive twin at over $200. I guess big sibling energy costs more. Meanwhile, Milotic ex is out here channeling its inner supermodel with light and shadow drama, and somehow also counters Tera Pokémon like it moonlights as a meta card.

My personal favorite? Ceruledge. It’s giving neon fever dreams, and I mean that as a compliment. This is the first time its card has actually been valuable, and I think illustrator Rond deserves a standing ovation. Or at least a coffee. Ceruledge isn’t even a top-tier Pokémon competitively, but with this art, I don’t care.

If you’re a collector, the value potential is real. If you’re a player, some of these cards slap on the battlefield. And if you just like shiny things and the thrill of gambling $45 on cardboard, welcome to the club. I already cracked one box and I’m convincing myself I “need” another for science.

The bundle includes six booster packs, so you’re not guaranteed any heavy hitters, but at the rate people are snapping these up, I wouldn’t wait too long. Pikachu isn’t going to pull itself.
