Pokémon fever has been in the world for several decades, but this has reached a higher level recently. The generation that grew up with pocket monsters dreams of getting them all, in many areas, and one of the most prominent is the collectible card game. In it, we see some cards with enormous economic value, as well as sentimental for many collectors, and we are going to show you the five most expensive in history.

5- Neo Genesis Lugia – $125,000

A letter that breaks with the usual trend: first edition or extremely rare editions. It is part of the first expansion of the card game on the occasion of Pokémon Gold and Silver. A unique letter that in a perfect state reaches significant economic figures.

4 – Kanghaskhan promo card 1998 – $150,000

Pokémon tournament promo cards have enormous value, and this one from Kanghaskhan from the 1998 Japan Mega Battle Tournament is a great value.

3 – Backless Blastoise – $300,000

A strange letter, an anomaly in which there is no back. They were part of a print trial before the official release of the trading card game, and to this day their value is enormous.

2 – Base Set Charizard 1st Edition – Over $300,000

The most popular and famous letter of all time. A first edition that everyone dreams of, but that very few can have. Its price continues to rise, and today it has reached more than 300 thousand dollars if it is in a perfect state of conservation and its grading indicates it.

1 – Illustrator Pikachu – $1.2 million

Charizard is the most popular card, but none are as weird as Pikachu Illustrator. This same month of March it reached the price of 1.2 million dollars in an auction. An object that only the winners of a contest held in the Japanese magazine CoroCoro obtained.

The Pokémon phenomenon continues to grow

There has always been a market and a huge demand for Pokémon, but it reached a new level after Logan Paul decided to start collecting his trading card game. From there, and constantly, prices have been increasing in everything that includes the Nintendo franchise.
