Tap to open
Pikachu needs no introduction, and this particular card, the 20th Anniversary Campaign #224/SM-P from the Japanese Promo set, is one of those pieces that longtime collectors quietly circle back to. It was never a pack pull in the traditional sense, it came out of Pokemon Center's own celebration of the franchise, which is a big part of why people search for Pikachu value long after other promos have faded from memory. Right now the raw or ungraded market has it sitting at $260, which tells you plenty about how much demand is still attached to this little yellow mouse.

The collector's take on Pikachu
Is Pikachu worth grading?
So is Pikachu worth grading? Honestly, it depends on what you're comfortable risking. A PSA 10 comes in at $1,261, which works out to about 4.9 times what the raw card sells for at $260, and a Grade 9 lands at $393. That's a real jump, no question, but gem mint is called gem mint for a reason. It's genuinely hard to hit, and grading fees plus shipping and the waiting game are costs you eat whether the card comes back a 10 or a 7. If your copy already looks clean under a light, corners sharp, centering even, it might be worth the gamble. If it's got soft edges or print lines, you're often better off enjoying it raw or selling it as is rather than betting on a perfect grade that may not come.
How rare is Pikachu?
PackSpy hasn't tracked exact population numbers for this one, but everything about how Pikachu entered the world points to a genuinely limited release. Pokemon Center anniversary promos were tied to specific campaigns rather than ongoing print runs, so what's out there now is largely what's ever going to be out there. That kind of scarcity is exactly why the raw price holds firm at $260 and why a PSA 10 commands well over a thousand dollars. When supply is capped and collector interest keeps growing, values tend to hold their ground or climb rather than drift.
Where can you pull Pikachu?
Here's the honest answer: we haven't recorded Pikachu being pulled on any of the pack sites we track, not once. That's not an oversight on our part, it reflects what this card actually is: a promo tied to a Pokemon Center campaign rather than something sitting in booster boxes today. If you're chasing this one, the real path is the secondary market, not pack breaks, and that's worth knowing before you spend money hoping to rip it out of a pack. We track pulls across sites specifically so collectors don't have to guess where their odds actually are, and for Pikachu, the data is telling you plainly to look elsewhere.
Questions people ask
How much is Pikachu worth?+
A raw or ungraded copy of the 20th Anniversary Campaign Pikachu currently sits at $260. That's the baseline most collectors use when deciding whether to hold, sell, or send it off for grading.
Is Pikachu worth grading?+
It can be, especially with a PSA 10 valued at $1,261 against a raw price of $260, about a 4.9x jump. Just remember gem mint is tough to land, and grading costs and time are real considerations, so it's worth grading only if the card is already in excellent shape.
How much is a PSA 10 Pikachu worth?+
A PSA 10 Pikachu from this release is valued at $1,261, compared to $393 for a Grade 9 and $260 raw. That gap shows just how much a perfect grade can add to this card's value.
