Riolu Hatch Day Ends: Shiny Spike Incoming?

Pokémon GO's Riolu Hatch Day event has just concluded, leaving trainers buzzing! According to PokemonBlog.com, the event featured significantly increased Riolu hatches from 2km eggs and a boosted Shiny Riolu rate. This flurry of Riolu undoubtedly impacted the Pokémon TCG market.

What This Means for Collectors

The increased availability of Riolu, and especially Shiny Riolu, could lead to a short-term increase in demand for Riolu and Lucario Pokémon TCG cards. Collectors who were lucky enough to hatch a Shiny Riolu in-game might now be looking to complete their collections with the corresponding card artwork. We may also see more Riolu cards submitted for grading as collectors seek to protect and authenticate their newly acquired pieces.

This surge in interest is likely to be most pronounced for rarer Riolu and Lucario cards, such as full art, secret rare, and promo cards. Keep an eye on auction sites and online marketplaces for potential price fluctuations in the coming weeks. While the long-term impact is uncertain, this event presents a potential opportunity to capitalize on the increased visibility of these Pokémon.
