What better way to celebrate the release of Pokemon’s Scarlet & Violet: Journey Together than with the latest Liquid Games Pokemon Market? On April 19, nearly 150 vendor tables filled the ballroom of Bell Works in Holmdel, NJ with all things Pokemon all day long. We’re talking about various collectibles, art, video games, handmade crafts, and, of course, Pokemon cards!
Not only will you find singles from the newest & hottest sets like Prismatic Evolutions, Surging Sparks, and 151, but older hard-to-find expansions as well. Whether you’re looking for raw or graded, you’re bound to find the TCG you’re looking for thanks to reputable local vendors like Sholl Poke & Robby Rocket (above), Daedalus TCG, One More Collectible, PokeRon, Surga Collective, MNML Cards, and many more. Browse the endless packs, boxes, tins, and accessories while you’re at it, too!
But Pokemon is more than collecting cards at Pokemon Market! Whatever you collect, there’s a Pokemon collectible for you: custom drinkware & apparel from Monty & Me, character crystals from Cris’ Crystals & Jewels, Pokemon crochet, Funko Pops, 3D printed items, enamel pins, autographed Poke merch, and even a vast array of exclusive licensed plush dolls provided by NYC Plushie Queen:
For the players, head into the tournament area to play & trade cards with others, register for the Win a Case League Cup, or enjoy free retro gameplay like Pokemon Stadium 64 (below)! There’s even a food vendor with breakfast, lunch, baked goods, and other refreshments to fuel you throughout the day. And to top it all off, stop by the fan-favorite photo booth and take home a complimentary keepsake to remember the event.
As always, Pokemon Market ran from 10am-5pm (with an early 9am VIP entry) with plenty to see & do, no matter what time you arrive. But if you’re after specific items, it’s always best to arrive as early as possible so that you can secure what you’re looking for! And be sure to check out Liquid Games‘ next event which will be held at the Meadowlands Expo Center on June 7, 2025 with over 350 tables for their biggest Pokemon Market yet!
