Market insight
Swellow's reverse-holo standard printing has surged to $16.75, up 67.7% over the past year and 39% in the last 90 days, while the normal printing remains flat near $1.51 with minimal movement across all timeframes. The reverse-holo variant now trades at a significant qualitative premium to the normal version, which has barely moved from its $0.55–$1.55 range. The divergence suggests collector demand is concentrated almost entirely on the reverse-holo treatment rather than the card's inherent playability or character appeal.
