The super rare Illustrator Pikachu card, considered one of the most valuable Pokémon cards, has never received a bid at an eBay auction.
The world of Pokémon card collectors has been at the top of the media attention in recent years, and no wonder. Rare and old Pokémon cards have become a cult item for fans of this popular franchise. One of the most sought after has been the Holographic Illustrator Pikachu Pokémon Carda super rare card that seems to have always generated a lot of interest among collectors.
In the world of Pokémon cards, rarity is a major factor that determines their value. The holographic Illustrator Pikachu Pokémon Card is one of the most difficult cards to get, making it one of the most valuable. This one in particular, of which there are only about 12 in the worldhas been the subject of a great deal of interest on the auction market in recent years, selling for exorbitant amounts.
Recently, an eBay seller attempted to auction off a near-mint condition holographic illustrator Pikachu card with an initial offer of $480,000, but did not receive any offers. It’s a strange fact, as a similar letter sold for $224,500 at auction in 2019, and another sold for $375,000 on eBay in 2021.

eBay has sent out press releases to promote the auction of this super rare Pikachu Iltrador Pokémon Card. However, despite all the hype around this auction, there were no bids. Even so, the seller and eBay continue to work together to find a buyer for this coveted letter.
It’s hard to tell if the lack of deals is due to a general cooling off in the market for expensive Pokemon cards or just a reality check at the higher end of the market, where interest and prices are driven by a few wealthy individuals. Despite this, the new card sets are still very popular with fans, and the Pokémon company plans to release a series of holographic Charizard, Blastoise, and Venusaur cards later this year to tap into collectors’ nostalgia.
