Pikachu [Shadowless Red Cheeks] Card Facts & History
5 facts about this card
Card History
This is the famous 'Red Cheeks' Base Set Pikachu variant, a shadowless-era print that Bulbapedia specifically identifies as the original 58/102 Pikachu print and one of the hobby’s most recognizable early Pokémon TCG oddities.
Artist
The red-cheeked version is often treated like an error card because illustrator Mitsuhiro Arita originally submitted Base Set Pikachu with yellow cheeks, making this print a fascinating glimpse at an early production change.
Artist
Mitsuhiro Arita has said his work on Base Set Pikachu and Charizard had a big effect on his career, which gives this humble common extra weight as part of Pokémon TCG art history.
Set Lore
Base Set was the first main expansion of the Pokémon Trading Card Game, so a Shadowless Red Cheeks Pikachu connects collectors directly to the earliest English-era print run of the hobby.
Cultural Impact
Pikachu was introduced in the original Pokémon games and became the franchise mascot, which helps explain why even a common Base Set Pikachu variant can feel like a centerpiece of Pokémon nostalgia.
