PSA 10 2021 Pokemon Birthday Pikachu Holo Celebrations Classic Collection 24

Price: $175.00

The PSA 10 Birthday Pikachu Holo from the 2021 Celebrations Classic Collection, card 24, promo rarity. This one’s a reprint of the classic promo, graded by PSA in gem mint condition.

That artwork shows Pikachu mid-celebration, party hat on, balloons floating, with a cheeky grin that captures the fun vibe. It’s got that nostalgic charm without overdoing it.

On the card text, it’s a Lightning type with 60 HP. No Ability here, but attacks include Growl for one Colorless energy—reduces damage from the Defending Pokémon’s next attack by 10, after Weakness and Resistance, and it ends if either gets benched. Then Thundershock for two Lightning energies deals 20 damage, plus a coin flip to Paralyze if heads. Weakness to Fighting times two, retreat cost of one. Simple mechanics that nod to early Pokémon battles, easy to slot into a deck for some disruption.

The Celebrations set dropped in 2021 as part of the 25th anniversary lineup, reprinting fan-favorite cards from the game’s history in a special Classic Collection subset. This Birthday Pikachu stands out because it’s a faithful holo recreation of the original 2000 Wizards promo, which was a rare giveaway at Pokémon Center events. The reprint keeps the black star promo symbol but adds the Celebrations stamp, making it accessible for collectors who missed the vintage version. It’s from a set that mixed old-school art with modern printing quality, appealing to those building anniversary-themed collections.

For slab details, this PSA 10 means perfect 10s across the board—centering spot-on, edges sharp, corners crisp, surface flawless. Eye appeal is solid with that shiny holo foil popping against the birthday scene, no major print lines or haze to distract. Based on PSA pop reports, the population for this card in 10 is around 2,500, which keeps it common enough for display without being everywhere.

I’d keep this one on the shelf for those random nostalgia hits, like flipping through old photos.
