Pikachu #26 Value (Wizards Black Star Promos)
Pokemon card price guide: raw and graded values, eBay sold prices and price history. Updated Nov 2, 2026.
Unlike the named novelty versions nearby, Pikachu #26 presents the character under the plain Pikachu title. The Gakuji Nomoto illustration belongs to the early promotional run, where standalone distribution and sequential Black Star numbering matter more than booster rarity. Its strong price rank, 11th among 53 entries, shows solid demand within a crowded Pikachu group.
