Tap to open
Pikachu needs no introduction, and this particular version, the Holo 1st Edition #7 from the Japanese Shiny Collection set, is one collectors seek out specifically for that 1st edition stamp paired with the shiny holo treatment. Raw copies sit around $93, but that number climbs fast once you start talking grades, which is exactly why so many people search for Pikachu value before deciding what to do with theirs. It's the kind of card that rewards patience if you're chasing a real return.

The collector's take on Pikachu
Is Pikachu worth grading?
Here's the honest math: a raw Pikachu runs about $93, but a PSA 10 is valued at $1,695, which works out to roughly 18.2 times the raw price. That's a serious jump, and it's tempting to think every copy you own is a hidden goldmine. But gem mint 10s are hard to hit, grading takes time and money, and there's real risk your card comes back a 9 or lower, worth notably less than that top grade even though a Grade 9 still lands at a respectable $1,025. If your copy looks genuinely clean under a light, corners sharp, surface untouched, grading can make sense. If it's borderline, you might be paying to find out it wasn't worth it.
How rare is Pikachu?
Across all grading companies, there are 3,601 total graded copies of this Pikachu on record, and of those, 1,724 have come back PSA 10. That's actually a fairly high proportion earning the top grade, which tells you this particular print holds up well when it's been cared for, but it also means competition among gem mint copies is real rather than a fluke of one or two lucky submissions. Scarcity here isn't about a tiny population, it's about how many collectors are chasing the same top-tier copies, which keeps that PSA 10 price firmly elevated.
Where can you pull Pikachu?
This is where PackSpy's tracking actually earns its keep, because price guides won't tell you this part. We've recorded Pikachu pulled 2 times across the sites we monitor, both on collector-crypt, with the biggest recorded pull value coming in at $49. It's also been spotted in the Elite Pokémon Gacha Pack. Two recorded pulls is a small sample, and it's a good reminder that opening packs is fundamentally a gamble where most rips don't come close to covering their cost. If you specifically want this Pikachu, buying it directly on the secondary market is usually the more reliable route than hoping it turns up in a pack.
Questions people ask
How much is Pikachu worth?+
A raw, ungraded Pikachu Holo 1st Edition #7 is valued at $93. Once graded, that value rises to $1,025 for a Grade 9 and $1,695 for a PSA 10, so condition and grading make a real difference to what it's worth.
Is Pikachu worth grading?+
It can be, since a PSA 10 is worth about 18.2 times the raw price, jumping from $93 to $1,695. But gem mint copies aren't easy to land, grading has real costs and risk, and a Grade 9 at $1,025 is still solid but a noticeable step down from a 10.
Why is the Pikachu Holo 1st Edition #7 print worth more than the standard one?+
The 1st edition stamp marks it from an early, more limited print run, and collectors have always paid up for that extra layer of history and scarcity on top of the holo itself. Combined with its status in the Japanese Shiny Collection set, it's simply a more sought after piece than a later, unstamped print would be.
