# Pikachu #RC29/RC32 — Generations

## Summary

A Radiant Collection Pikachu sits in the Generations subset, where the mascot of the franchise always draws buyers beyond the usual Lightning crowd. Kagemaru Himeno has long been tied to the franchise's early card art, and a Pikachu from his hand carries real nostalgic weight. At a $147 modelled guide, with 70 copies traded in 30 days, this printing is almost entirely collector premium, since the same card plays for $0.33 out of Ascended Heroes; no PSA population is on file.
