The Pikachu ex 238/191 in context
Why collectors care
The Pikachu ex special illustration rare is the chase card of Surging Sparks and was the most demanded card of its release window, combining the franchise mascot with a heavily-praised illustration.
How to identify it
Number 238/191 from Surging Sparks (2024), a special illustration rare numbered beyond the set total.
Common mistakes
Confusing it with the standard Pikachu ex or with the many other Pikachu chase cards across recent sets. The 238/191 number identifies this one.
Grade considerations
Centering and surface condition on the textured full-art foil drive the grade. Demand at release was high enough that mid-grade copies are plentiful and gem copies carry the premium.
