Pokémon Pikachu EX Full Art Promo XY124 Holo Black Star XY Card
Pokémon Pikachu EX Full Art Promo XY124 Holo Black Star XY Card
Price: $58.32
Pikachu EX Full Art from the XY Black Star Promos, numbered XY124, hits as an ultra rare in raw condition. This one’s a lightning-type basic EX with 130 HP, keeping it sturdy for those quick battles. The artwork pops with Pikachu mid-leap, sparks flying everywhere, and that full art spread really lets the holo shine under the lights without overwhelming the details.
On the card text side, it’s got an ability called Circle Circuit that lets you bench Pokémon for extra damage boosts, plus attacks like Quick Attack for 20 base with a coin flip for 20 more, and Thunderbolt packing 80 while discarding all attached energy. Simple setup, but it can swing games if you’re flipping heads.
This promo dropped back in 2015 as part of the XY era’s Black Star lineup, often bundled with tins or special releases. Raw copies from this printing sometimes show up with slight centering drifts—maybe 60/40 on the borders if you’re picky—but the card stock holds up well, thick and resistant to bends compared to some thinner sets. Edges might have a whisper of whitening from shuffling, but clean ones keep that factory crispness.
For raw condition, look for those sharp corners without dings, edges free of major chips or silvering, and a surface that’s smooth with no scratches marring the foil. The holo flash on this Pikachu EX has that electric crackle, especially around the borders, making it fun to tilt in hand. Just watch for any print lines that sneak in on some copies; they’re faint but there if you squint.
Sleeve it up for your deck or let it chill in a binder—either way, it’s got that classic Pikachu vibe.
