# Pikachu (皮卡丘) (Chinese) #025 — 30th Celebration (30周年庆典)

## Summary

September 2026 brought the mainland release of the 30th Celebration set, and its Simplified Chinese Pikachu was among the first anniversary cards Chinese collectors could open. The card is a sunny yellow, with Pikachu seated in profile against a busy, painterly backdrop of reds and blues, while the lower half carries a glittering Poke Ball-style mark. Pikachu is the franchise's mascot, so the card carries a special weight at a thirtieth anniversary. The modelled guide sits at $1.99, down 34% over 30 days on 13 copies traded; no PSA population is on file.
