Pikachu is the reason a lot of us got into this hobby in the first place, and card #15 from the 2009 POP Series 9 set is a fun, affordable way to own a piece of that. It's a common, illustrated by Midori Harada, so it was never meant to be a chase card, but if you're searching for Pikachu value or wondering what a Pikachu price actually looks like today, this is the page for you: raw copies currently sit around $15.

The collector's take on Pikachu
Is Pikachu worth grading?
Grading this one is worth thinking through before you send it off. A raw copy runs about $15, and a PSA 10 sits at $75, which works out to roughly 4.8x the raw price, a real jump but not a life-changing one once you factor in grading fees and the wait. A Grade 9 currently prices at $624, so condition really does swing the numbers around here, and gem mint is genuinely hard to land: sharp corners and centering matter a lot on a card this common in circulation. If you already own a copy that looks clean, grading can make sense, but treat it as a hobby decision, not a guaranteed payday.
How rare is Pikachu?
Right now there are 2,020 graded copies of this Pikachu on record, and only 79 of those have earned a PSA 10. That's a small slice of an already modest population, which tells you gem mint copies are the exception here, not the rule. It's not a card defined by extreme scarcity overall, but that PSA 10 population is genuinely tight, and that gap is a big part of why the PSA 10 price sits so far above the raw card.
Where can you pull Pikachu?
This is where PackSpy's own tracking comes in handy, since we log real pulls across pack sites rather than just guessing. We've recorded this Pikachu pulled 200 or more times across courtyard, collector-crypt, packs, mnstr, tilt-rips, and lastpack, with the biggest recorded pull on record hitting $11,303. It's shown up in packs like the Pokémon Starter Pack, Elite Pokémon Gacha Pack, Wildcard Basic Pack, Starter Pokémon Gacha Pack, and XY Evolutions, so if you're chasing one yourself, those are the names to watch. Just remember that opening packs is a gamble by nature, and most rips don't come close to that top result, so pull for the fun of it first.
Questions people ask
How much is Pikachu worth?+
A raw, ungraded copy of this Pikachu is valued at $15. That reflects its status as a common from the 2009 POP Series 9 set, which keeps the price accessible even though the card itself is a fan favorite.
Is Pikachu worth grading?+
It can be, if your copy is genuinely clean. A PSA 10 brings $75 against a $15 raw price, about 4.8x, and a Grade 9 currently sits at $624, so grading can pay off, but only 79 out of 2,020 graded copies have hit that PSA 10 mark, so gem mint is far from guaranteed.
How much is a PSA 10 Pikachu worth?+
A PSA 10 copy of this Pikachu is valued at $75. Out of 2,020 total graded copies on record, only 79 have earned that top grade, which is a big reason PSA 10 copies command a premium over raw ones.
