# Pikachu #55/236 — Unified Minds

## Summary

A Unified Minds common Pikachu is the quiet end of a Pokémon that never goes out of demand, so it sells on affection rather than scarcity. Sanosuke Sakuma is a long-running Pokémon TCG illustrator, and the draw-flipping attack made it a casual deck curiosity, not a tournament piece. At a $1.68 modelled guide, with 115 copies traded in 30 days, with the tape reading as a floor forming near the lows, 83% 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.
