07Why Collectors Want It

  • Final evolution of the Pichu → Pikachu → Raichu line — evolves from Pikachu with a Thunder Stone. Home to the line’s vintage Base Set holo and a long run of GX/V prints.
  • Required for any complete Raichu master set across eras.
  • Collectors of the Stormfront set need this card to finish it.

08Competitive Playability

Tier: None

Level-Up Raichu with 110 HP; top attack around — damage. Functions as an evolution-chain piece rather than a tournament attacker.

09Card Moves and Abilities

Ability: Link Lightning

Once during your turn, when you put Raichu LV.X onto Raichu and use Voltage Shoot, you may use another attack of Raichu afterward. This power can't be used if Raichu is affected by a Special Condition.

Voltage Shoot Cost: Lightning + Lightning + Colorless

Discard 2 Lightning Energy cards from your hand and choose 1 of your opponent's Pokémon. This attack does 80 to that Pokémon. (Don't apply Weakness and Resistance for Benched Pokémon.)

10Grading and Population

PSA 10 estimate: Modern Common/Uncommon — most copies are not graded because raw value rarely justifies the fee.

Graded populations stay low; usually collected raw or sleeved rather than slabbed.

Other graders: Negligible BGS/CGC submission volume.
