What does Pokémon Card Insurance Cover?
Pokémon cards are synonymous with nostalgia, rarity, and cultural significance. Since their debut in 1996, they have become one of the most iconic and valuable collectibles in the world. What began as a companion to the globally beloved video games has evolved into a multi-billion-pound market, attracting collectors, investors, and enthusiasts alike. With certain cards commanding six and seven-figure sums at auction, Pokémon cards have transcended childhood memorabilia to become prized assets in the world of luxury collectibles. From intricate artwork and limited print runs to pristine condition and provenance, each card tells a story of rarity, fandom, and investment potential.

Its rarity and historical significance make it one of the most coveted Pokémon cards in the world.
1999 Tropical Mega Battle No. 2 Trainer Card:
Issued as part of a prestigious Japanese tournament, this card was given only to participants and ranks among the rarest of all promotional Pokémon cards. With fewer than ten believed to exist, its exclusivity and tournament provenance make it a grail item for elite collectors.
