Pikachu #25 Value
Japanese Gold, Silver, New World · Card 25
Pikachu needs no introduction, and this particular printing, card #25 from the Japanese Gold, Silver, New World set, is the kind of card that shows up in searches for Pikachu value again and again because collectors just can't quit it. It's not a flashy chase card in terms of raw dollars, sitting at $10 ungraded, but that low buy-in is exactly why so many people pick one up just to have a piece of this era in their binder. Once you look at what a clean copy can fetch graded, you start to understand why so many people are curious about the Pikachu price before they even open a pack.

Pikachu — collector's take
Is Pikachu worth grading?
So is it worth grading? Here's the honest math: a raw copy sits at $10, a Grade 9 jumps to $191, and a PSA 10 sits way up at $1,806, which works out to about 184.3 times the raw price. That's a real jump, no question. But gem mint 10s are hard to land, this card has to come through with sharp corners, clean edges and centering that holds up under a loupe, and grading companies charge fees and take weeks regardless of what grade you get back. If you pull a copy that looks strong, it can absolutely be worth submitting, just go in knowing a 9 is the far more common outcome and plan your expectations around that, not around the PSA 10 number.
How rare is it?
Across all grading submissions, only 446 copies of this Pikachu have ever been graded, and of those, just 60 have earned the coveted PSA 10 label. When you sit with those numbers for a second, it puts the price gap in perspective. A population of 446 total graded copies isn't huge to begin with, and having only 60 hit gem mint means true perfect copies are genuinely uncommon, not just marketed that way. That scarcity at the top end is a big part of why the PSA 10 price sits so far above the raw and Grade 9 numbers, demand chasing a small, real pool of cards.
Where to pull it
This is where PackSpy's tracking actually earns its keep, because we don't just estimate, we record real pulls across real pack sites. Pikachu has been pulled 200 or more times across collector-crypt, courtyard, mnstr, tilt-rips and packs, so this isn't some ghost card you'll never see live. It's turned up in Elite Pokémon Gacha Pack, Pokémon Starter Pack, Pokémon Pro Pack, Legendary Pokémon Gacha Pack and Pack 3, and the biggest recorded pull value we've logged for it sits at $3,750. That said, opening packs chasing a specific card is still a gamble, most rips don't come close to that number, so treat it as a fun possibility, not a plan.

A raw, ungraded copy of this Pikachu runs about $10. Graded copies climb from there, with a Grade 9 sitting around $191 and a PSA 10 reaching $1,806. The gap between raw and gem mint really shows how much condition matters for this card.
Is Pikachu worth grading?
It can be, especially since a PSA 10 sells for roughly 184.3 times the raw price. Just keep in mind only 60 out of 446 graded copies have hit that top grade, so gem mint is the exception, not the rule. Grade it if the card genuinely looks sharp, don't count on perfection every time.
