the most expensive pokemon card

The most expensive Pokémon card is the Pikachu Illustrator card, which sold for $5.275 million in 2022. This card is extremely rare, originally awarded as a prize for a Japanese illustration contest in 1998, with fewer than 40 copies known to exist and only one graded PSA 10. YouTuber Logan Paul acquired the PSA 10 version in a private sale involving cash and a trade, setting the record for the highest price paid for a Pokémon card.
