# Pikachu ex #028/131 — Prismatic Evolutions

## Summary

Pikachu ex is the franchise's face as a playable Basic ex, and in Prismatic Evolutions the Eeveelution chase pulls most of the attention, so a Double rare is the set's ordinary ex slot. N-DESIGN Inc. is a studio credit, and demand rests mainly on the Pikachu name. The modelled guide sits at $1.33, down 40% over 30 days on 583 copies traded, with only 22 days of inventory on the board; a PSA 10 brings $125, 94 times raw, but a 27% gem rate against $65 of fees makes grading a losing trade.
