Dark Raichu Card Facts & History
5 facts about this card
Card History
Dark Raichu carries one of the coolest pedigrees in the hobby because the character debuted as the Pokémon TCG’s first-ever Secret Rare in Team Rocket before being brought back here as a numbered holo in Legendary Collection.
Set Lore
Legendary Collection turned Dark Raichu into a nostalgic victory lap by reprinting cards from Base Set, Jungle, Fossil, and Team Rocket, then giving the expansion its famous fireworks-style Reverse Holofoil treatment that collectors still instantly recognize.
Artist
Mitsuhiro Arita illustrated this card, linking Dark Raichu to one of the most iconic artists in Pokémon history and giving the artwork the dramatic shadow-heavy look that helped define early Dark Pokémon cards.
In-Game
This card’s flavor of unstable stored electricity matches Raichu’s game lore, where multiple Pokédex entries describe it becoming aggressive as electricity builds up and discharging power through its tail.
Card History
Dark Raichu feels especially evocative for anime-era fans because Raichu’s most famous early TV appearance came in "Electric Shock Showdown," the classic episode that framed Raichu as Pikachu’s intimidating evolved rival.
