Pikachu V 020/028 (JP)

This is Pikachu V, card 020/028 from the Japanese 25th Anniversary Collection. Released to mark a quarter century of Pokemon, this set gathers fan favourite cards into a celebratory lineup, and a Pikachu printing is a natural centrepiece given Pikachu's role as the face of the franchise.

This is a V card carrying the Double Rare rarity. V cards represent powerful versions of a Pokemon with higher attack potential, balanced by giving up extra prize cards when knocked out, and they were a defining mechanic of the Sword and Shield era. The Double Rare finish marks it as one of the premium cards in the collection rather than a standard print.

With Pikachu at the heart of the anniversary set, this card brings together the most recognisable Pokemon of all and a celebratory release. Collectors who follow Japanese sets or who keep a dedicated Pikachu collection will find this a fitting addition.
