The Gengar Premium

I think you’re correct. Social media has a massive influence, and I would assume a large portion of the interest originally came from there.

I first noticed it in late 2024 or early 2025, when people started telling me their new favourite was Gengar.

I have noticed with the current boom, Gengar seems to be the fan favourite with a lot of the newer collectors, Whilst in my LGS a few weeks a go the cards that were selling more than other’s were Gengars.

Also a young co-worker (19 year old) has spoken to me about Pokémon recently and expressed interest in getting a PSA graded Gengar because they think it is cool. I don’t use social media but I would guess Gengar is popular on there.
