How Pikachu trades

A near-mint Pikachu is 168% more expensive than a year ago, when it was $5.00 (October 2025). That is the highest it has been in our price history, which goes back to January 2021.

Estimated value · Pack fresh
Based on 30 sold sales

Estimated. This card has enough sales to price the top 15% but not the top 5%, so pack-fresh is projected from the gap we measure between those two tiers on cards that do — about 1.4x on vintage, 1.2x on modern. $21.54. That's about +61% over a typical Near Mint copy.

ⓘ How do we work this out?

We take every real sale of this exact card over the last 12 months (30 sales), sort them by price, and read off the top 15% and top 5%. No multipliers, no guesses — the prices cleaner copies actually fetched.

Why cleaner copies cost more: buyers can see condition in the photos and pay for it. Listings sellers describe as pack fresh or gem mint land in this top band 1.7× more often than ordinary ones — the premium follows the card, not the hype.

Copies in this band are also the ones collectors send to grading: far more likely than a typical binder copy to be submitted at all — and to come back with the strong grade that carries the PSA prices shown on this page. That prospect is part of what buyers are paying for here.

These are read straight off this card's own completed sales — sort them by price and take the top 15% and top 5%. Whether your copy qualifies is a judgment made by looking at the card.

Our recorded ungraded price for this card. The line closes on the Near Mint figure shown above — the chart and the headline are the same number by construction, never two. The line is the running level, so a single unusually cheap or dear sale does not spike it. Hover any day for its price on the line.

Vendor prices for the same printing beside our own raw sold median — the same figure as the Raw row in the by-grade table. A wide gap is usually thin data on one side rather than an arbitrage; the headline is blended from sales, not from the cheapest of these.
