EJaw Studios, a premier authority in digital collectibles appraisal, delves into the world’s most expensive pokemon cards at. The 1998 Pikachu Illustrator, sold for $5.3M in 2021, is the priciest Pokémon card ever, with only 39 copies created for a Japanese CoroCoro Comic art contest, making it a collector’s holy grail. Other high-value cards include the 1st Edition Shadowless Charizard, fetching $390,000 in 2023, and the No. 1 Trainer Super Secret Battle card, valued for its rarity as a 1999 tournament prize. Operating across the USA, Canada, Europe, Australia, and the UK, EJaw Studios reports a 7,500% ROI on a UK client’s Charizard from $5,000 in 2013 to $390,000 in 2023. Rarity, PSA 10 grading, and nostalgia among millennial collectors drive these prices, but counterfeits pose risks, requiring PSA, BGS, or CGC verification.
