What Is Pikachu Worth?
Pikachu (Reverse_Holofoil variant) is a Common card from the SWSH01: Sword & Shield Base Set set, card number 065/202. On PokeCardWorth we focus on one question — what is it actually worth — and at its current valuation, it is an affordable, easy-to-find card best valued as part of a complete set rather than on its own.
Pikachu Value Breakdown
As of 2026, Pikachu (SWSH01: Sword & Shield Base Set, 065/202) is worth around $0.96 in Near Mint condition. Condition drives the price hard: a Near Mint copy is worth about $0.96, while a Damaged one drops to roughly $0.25. The full condition ladder runs Near Mint $0.96, Lightly Played $0.86, Moderately Played $0.57, Heavily Played $0.77, Damaged $0.25 — so grading the condition correctly before you buy or sell matters more than almost anything else. A PSA 10 (Gem Mint) example is valued near $175.00 — about 182x the raw price, which is the single biggest swing in this card's value. PSA 9 copies sit around $22.50.
Is It Worth Grading Pikachu?
Grading Pikachu can pay off concretely: the gap between its raw value ($0.96) and a PSA 10 ($175.00) is about $174.04 — a 182x uplift before grading fees. Other graded tiers we track: PSA 9 $22.50, CGC 10 $8.75, CGC 9.5 $14.35. At this value grading rarely makes sense — the fee usually exceeds the card's worth.

Is Pikachu a Good Buy?
As a common, Pikachu holds little standalone value, but clean copies still matter for set completion. Don't expect price growth here — value it for completeness, not returns. Whatever you decide, recheck Pikachu's value on PokeCardWorth before buying or selling — the 2026 market shifts with set releases, nostalgia cycles, and demand.
