Squirtle Price

Updated 2026-05-06

Base Set Squirtle is running a sustained upward move that shows no sign of fatigue. NM copies have climbed to $10.38, up +40.4% over seven days and +45.3% over the trailing month, indicating steady accumulation rather than panic spike. The consistency between these two windows (40 vs 45 basis points) suggests this isn't a flash correction but genuine demand pressure on a common print that typically trades as dry powder. At this price tier and with this momentum, liquidity likely tightens on the ask side, which compounds the move upward and attracts specs chasing entry. The real question is whether this reflects broader Base Set nostalgia, Pokemon sentiment, or just this particular card's chase appeal. Watch whether the next week holds the $9-10 range or if we see a pullback toward $7. Supply of NM copies will determine if this runs or rolls over.
