What Is Pichu Worth?
Pichu (Reverse_Holofoil variant) is a Common card from the Emerald set, card number 59/106. On PokeCardWorth we focus on one question — what is it actually worth — and at its current valuation, it carries real mid-range value and is worth keeping protected in a sleeve and top-loader.
Pichu Value Breakdown
As of 2026, Pichu (Emerald, 59/106) is worth around $83.18 in Near Mint condition. Condition drives the price hard: a Near Mint copy is worth about $83.18, while a Damaged one drops to roughly $13.50. The full condition ladder runs Near Mint $83.18, Lightly Played $54.25, Moderately Played $26.84, Heavily Played $36.00, Damaged $13.50 — so grading the condition correctly before you buy or sell matters more than almost anything else.

Is It Worth Grading Pichu?
