The card’s auction description read: “Pokémon “Pikachu Illustrator” Trainer Promo Hologram Trading Card, 1998. The Pokémon card called Pikachu Illustrator card featuring an image of Pikachu holding a pen has just become the most expensive ever, selling for $233,000 at an auction. We do know of one more card that was sold for big bucks making it the most expensive card ever sold. Thirty-nine of these cards were awarded, but only ten apparently still exist. Fans may know that the Pikachu Illustrator card was given out to winners of a comic contest that was held in Japan in 1997-98. But looks like Pokémon fans just can’t get enough and the demand for the illustrator cards refuses to die down. First the rare “ Pikachu Illustrator” card went under the hammer followed by the very sought-after Trainer card that was sold a few weeks ago for a little under a million.
It’s starting to look like the year of Pokémon cards.
