# Pikachu #049/195 — Silver Tempest

## Summary

Pikachu is the one Pokémon that needs no introduction, so even a common copy draws a steady crowd of completionists and mascot fans. Souichirou Gunjima is a long-running Pokémon TCG illustrator, and the Dedenne combo gave this Pikachu a niche deck role, though the card itself stays bulk. At a $0.45 sold median, down 10% over 30 days on 820 copies traded, with 75 days of inventory on the board, 38% of this printing’s price is collector premium, since the same card plays for $0.28 out of Ascended Heroes; PSA does not split this card’s population by finish, so no gem rate can be read for it.
