Detective Pikachu sits late in the Sun & Moon era of the English-language Pokémon TCG, released on March 29, 2019 as an expansion under the set code DET. It is a compact 18-card run, with all 18 catalog printings counted in the official total. What defines it is its lead card: Detective Pikachu itself tops the value ranking, backed by Charizard, Ditto, Mewtwo and Greninja, and the Pokémon it features lean on Colorless, Fire, Grass and Water types. The card list is short and built around those headline names.
The pull ladder in Detective Pikachu is short: 8 commons, 6 rares and 4 ultra rares, with no secret cards numbered past the printed 18. The most valuable cards are the Rare Detective Pikachu, then the Ultra Rare Charizard, Ditto and Mewtwo, with Greninja close behind. MPC Film illustrated Detective Pikachu, Ditto and Mewtwo, while Framestore illustrated Charizard. Value is heavily concentrated, since the top five cards alone hold 78 percent of the set's total card value.

As of October 2026, Detective Pikachu ranks 16th of the 16 comparable Sun & Moon sets by total card value, by its single most valuable card and by trading activity, and 129th of 130 sets across the whole game. Its master set value is level with the era median, and at 18 printed cards it is far smaller than the era median of 148. It followed Team Up, which holds more total value, and came before Unbroken Bonds, which also holds more. The size gap explains much of that, since those neighbours run to 181 and 214 cards.

Completing Detective Pikachu means finding all 18 catalog printings, and every one of them is priced.
