7-day gainers
Alakazam E4 Lv.X tripled, $100.00 to $300.00, +200.0% on 8 listings backing the move. Steelix - 125/214 (Cosmos Holo) ran $9.21 to $16.92, +83.7%, depth not reported. Lucario - 14/95 (Cracked Ice Holo) went $15.97 to $28.58, +79.0% across 69 listings, the deepest book of the group. Pikachu (French) climbed $110.98 to $192.99, +73.9%, with 415 listings behind it, the kind of depth that makes a move harder to dismiss.
7-day losers
Zekrom - 066/182 (Cosmos Holo) fell $11.92 to $2.09, -82.5% on 536 listings, the deepest book on the whole loser list. The rest of the carnage clusters in ME05: Pitch Black. Armarouge - 086/084 dropped $69.98 to $21.05 (-69.9%, 145 listings). went $6.99 to $3.46 (-50.5%, 44 listings). fell $79.99 to $44.67 (-44.2%, 47 listings). dropped $49.98 to $29.24 (-41.5%, 79 listings). went $14.98 to $9.05 (-39.6%, 165 listings). fell $35.00 to $21.77 (-37.8%, 70 listings). Outside that set: dropped $8.32 to $4.50 (-45.9%, only 9 listings deep). fell $68.00 to $39.34 (-42.1%, depth not reported). went $179.98 to $112.45 (-37.5%) on just 4 listings. None of this is a verdict on where these land next, just a report on the last seven days. Pitch Black taking six of the top ten losers is the story here, not any single card.
