# Pikachu #35/108 — Evolutions

## Summary

Pikachu is the mascot, and a Pikachu in the Evolutions set carries extra nostalgia as a Base Set-era remake, though a common like this one is an ordinary pull. Mitsuhiro Arita is a name collectors have followed since the earliest sets, which gives a bulk Pikachu a little more pull with completionists. At a $1.09 modelled guide, down 8% over 30 days on 688 copies traded, with only 2 days of inventory on the board, 77% of this printing’s price is collector premium, since the same card plays for $0.25 out of Ascended Heroes; PSA does not split this card’s population by finish, so no gem rate can be read for it.
