Pikachu ex

Description

The Pikachu ex card, numbered 53 in the 2026 Pokémon 30th Celebration set, is a Basic Lightning-type Pokémon with 190 HP. With 190 HP and a retreat cost of 1, this card provides a versatile option for deck construction. The artwork is credited to 5ban Graphics, adding artistic value to this Double Rare holo finish. In gameplay, Pikachu ex offers two distinct attacks that support different strategies. The Colorless Pika-Pika Parade attack allows you to search your deck for any number of Basic Pokémon and place them onto your Bench, then shuffle your deck. This effect facilitates rapid setup and resource management. Alternatively, the Lightning Thunderbolt attack deals 200 damage but requires discarding all Energy attached to Pikachu ex, making it a high-impact option for finishing moves. As a Pokémon ex card, it follows specific rules regarding prizes: when this Pokémon is Knocked Out, your opponent takes 2 Prize cards instead of the standard one. This mechanic increases the stakes of using Pikachu ex in battle. The card carries the Regulation Mark J and Pokédex Number 25, identifying it within the broader Pokémon TCG framework. The Double Rare rarity makes this card a desirable addition to any Pokémon trading card collection, appealing to those who appreciate both the iconic subject and the strategic depth it brings to the game.
