Most valuable "Semi vintage" set in ten years

Having a good discussion about the best/most valuable modern set in ten years is awesome, but, having a good discussion about the best semi vintage set is even better! (Maybe).

So, modern sets would be Sun & Moon - Scarlet Violet. Vintage is everything from Base Set up to Diamond & Pearl (because these sets are close to 20 years old and command prices of 10k or more).

The focus, then, is on the ´in between sets´; Black & White - XY. These sets are still semi affordable (to stick with the semi theme), but are getting more expensive.

I´m gonna go with Ancient Origins. This set has been climbing fast lately, and I can see why. The three Hoenn legendary cards are beautiful and so is the box-art. Let´s also not forget that his is, again, a Rayquaza set. Although there are some very interesting Black & White sets (like Dragons Exalted), I think this set has the highest ceiling.

Plasma Storm.

Legendary Treasures or Double Crisis.

I wanted to say Call of Legends but that one is just before BW block.

is this topic meant to be using current acquisition prices or assuming MSRP? Because theres a lot to be said about buying lesser sets at MSRP vs buying great sets that are already expensive hoping for further growth

Yeah, that´s a good question. Excluding Plasma Storm I would say current prices.

BoXY

My heart says CP1/Double Crisis, but my body says CP6/Evolutions (the boring answer).

prolly evolutions

No boring answers. Evolutions is an interesting take. If it dries op at some point than I see it going hard as well.

Definitely the best Japanese set in my opinion.
