The Pikachu EX Black Star Promo XY124 from the Red & Blue Collection, full art version, promo rarity, in clean raw near mint condition. This one’s got that classic Pikachu energy, with the full art showing the little guy mid-leap, sparks flying everywhere, and the holo pattern really catches the light like crazy when you tilt it just right. It’s a basic Lightning type with 130 HP, no ability, but the attacks pack a punch—Iron Tail does 30 damage times the number of heads you flip until you get tails, which can stack up if luck’s on your side, and then Thunderbolt hits for 120 but you have to discard all attached Lightning Energy, so plan accordingly. Weakness to Fighting times two, resistance to Metal minus 20, and a single retreat cost keep it straightforward for deck building.
Came out back in 2016 as part of the 20th anniversary Red & Blue Collection promo set, tied to the Generations expansion era, where they were bundling these with boxes or special packs. Raw copies from this printing often show up with pretty solid centering, maybe 60/40 at worst on the borders, but the foil stock means you sometimes spot tiny print lines or factory scratches if you’re picky. Edges can get a bit of whitening from handling, especially on the black borders that frame the art, and corners might have a faint ding or two from storage over the years. Surface-wise, the front is usually clean, no major whitening or scuffs, and the holo flash stays vibrant without much clouding, giving that satisfying snap when light hits it. If it’s been kept in a sleeve, the back stays pretty pristine too, no big ink issues or discoloration common in some older promos.
Overall, these are fun to hunt down for a collection, especially if you’re into the XY era vibes with that nostalgic Pikachu flair. Sleeve it quick or send it to grading—your call.
