This card is not legal for tournament play and features unique artwork by Atsuko Nishida, the original illustrator of Pikachu, making it an unmatched collectors trophy
We wrote about this card in December last year when it cost about $285, and while that was indeed a major spike from its original value of about $95, little did we know it would soon be considered a historic low for the cardboard rectangle - one of the most expensive rare Pokmon cards of 2024
Ive mostly been limited to using this card as a defensive layer in control decks, but Ive been run over more times than Id like to admit by some beefed-up commander with menace that I now can no longer block
It has a +30 weakness to fighting type Pokemon, a -20 resistance to metal type Pokemon, and a retreat cost of 3 colorless energy cards
