Pikachu Card Facts & History
5 facts about this card
Card History
Pikachu #115 is the lone Secret Rare in the original Black & White base set, making it the hidden chase card that sits beyond the set’s standard numbering.
Set Lore
The Black & White set was the first TCG expansion based on the Pokémon Black and Pokémon White video games, and contemporary set listings specifically call out its extra "bonus" Pikachu as the set’s hidden rare prize.
Artist
This Secret Rare was illustrated by Kouki Saitou, while Bulbapedia notes the card was later reimagined in Japan as a BW-P Full Art promo with different artwork, giving this English-era pull its own distinct visual identity.
In-Game
Its attack Thunderbolt is directly based on Pikachu’s signature video-game move, which helps this card feel like a straight TCG tribute to the franchise mascot’s most iconic battle technique.
Cultural Impact
Because Pikachu is the mascot of the entire Pokémon franchise, hiding it as the only Secret Rare in a generation-launching set gave Black & White an instant collector hook that still stands out today.
