Hi everyone once again. This is the third thread about Valuable Bulk, and this time is a big one! Let’s talk about some SWSH Era Stuff that will be valuable after rotation. I based the cards of this article in the most commons cards in Japan, that has already passed rotation. I will divide this post into 3 sections:

- Generic useful cards
- Specific decks cards
- Specific cards for SV decks

Remember that if you want to see the Valuable Bulk in SV you can read it in [here](https://www.elitefourum.com/t/valuable-common-bulk-from-scarlet-violet/39841). You can also find a thread about Crown Zenith (last set) valuable bulk [here](https://www.elitefourum.com/t/valuable-bulk-crown-zenith/39846).

* * *

_ **QUICK NOTES:** Singles refers to 1 unit of the card. Playset refers to 4 units of the card. Competitive players mostly prefers buying an expensive Playset than 4 Singles to avoid high shipping costs and comfortability. If you have seen my recent articles, you will know I use links to bulbapedia. I decided to change them to TCG Player because they might be more useful. Prices are determined by base prices of TCGPlayer._

This will be all of this first part of the article. It’s a massive article and it is being made at the same time we are rotating. I will update this post with all the information of the second part, which will include:

- Arceus VSTAR Deck
- Lugia VSTAR Deck
- Useful cards for SV Decks

This article took me hours of research and analysing. Please, if you find it interesting, like it. If you get some profit using this info, please let me know, it would make me SOO happy 😄.

Thanks for your effort on this article. Not a player or a set collector myself, but I find your articles very informative. It’s always good to have an active player perspective and for someone that is a complete noob it’s fascinating to see the list and understand why some bulk can be better than other bulk. I know for sure many people will find your articles super useful. Thanks again.

Cheers!
