Pikachu is a rare holo Pokemon card from Pokemon Celebrations, card 5 of 25, released October 8, 2021 in the Sword & Shield series. The illustration is by Mitsuhiro Arita.

VALUE

What is Pikachu #5 from Celebrations worth?

Two different numbers answer this, and they are not interchangeable. Raw/ungraded: a loose, ungraded copy of Pikachu #5 (Celebrations) carries a market reference of $5.38 USD for the holofoil printing (TCGplayer market price, as of 2026-09-11). Graded slabs: a graded example is priced per grading company and per grade and can sit far above that raw figure - our own graded marks for this card are charted and tabled below, per grader and grade. Both are references, not offers. The graded copy in our machine carries a Rip Station estimated slab value of $994.00 (PSA 10).
