About this Pikachu
The card
Pikachu 160/159 is an etched Full Art by You Iribi, and the one secret card in the main set of Crown Zenith, released on 20 January 2023. Pikachu stands among Pokémon from well-known cards of the series' first two years, Crowned Sword Zacian, Gigantamax Rapid Strike Urshifu and Inteleon among them.
It is a 70 HP Lightning Pokémon with one attack, Wild Charge, which does 90 and 30 to Pikachu itself. In Japan the card came out first, as a promo in the made-to-order Precious Collector Box at the end of 2022.
Crown Zenith
Crown Zenith, the last special expansion of the Sword & Shield series, was sold only in special products, never in booster boxes. It has 230 cards: 159 in the main set, this secret Pikachu, and the 70-card Galarian Gallery, which has a Pikachu of its own, GG30.
The grade
This copy is graded PSA 9, Mint, one step below Gem Mint 10. PSA gives a 9 to a superb card with no more than one minor flaw, such as a slight printing imperfection. Look up cert 177071437 on PSA's website.
