Pikachu EX 057/217

This is Pikachu EX 057/217, an English card from the Ascended Heroes set. Pikachu is the most recognisable face in the entire franchise, and any EX treatment of the series mascot tends to draw attention from both collectors and players.

The card carries the Double Rare classification, the rarity tier used for EX cards in this era of English releases. An EX card represents a powerful version of the Pokemon with higher hit points and stronger attacks, making it both a competitive option and a collectable centrepiece. Pikachu's enduring popularity means its EX cards are among the more keenly followed pulls from any set it appears in.

For collectors who focus on Pikachu, or anyone working through the Ascended Heroes set, this EX is a natural and well loved addition to a collection.
