Even 10 Billion Pokémon Cards Can’t Calm the Card Chaos
The Pokémon Company says it has printed over 85 billion Pokémon cards since 1996, with more than 10% of that total produced in the last year alone, but demand still outpaces supply. Booster packs remain scarce at retailers, and scalpers keep price gouging despite expansions like Scarlet & Violet–Prismatic Evolutions. The company plans to print more at max capacity, raising questions about whether even multi‑billion card runs (15B, 20B) or measures like buyer verification could finally curb the chaos.
