Provenance

Where it came from

The illustration depicts Pikachu wearing the iconic cap worn by Ash Ketchum in the film, which served as a reimagining of the character's early journey through the Kanto region.

The card was designed to celebrate the milestone anniversary of the anime series, utilizing the Sun & Moon era card template. It was distributed in North America and other territories as part of a special blister pack or ticket promotion, becoming a sought-after piece for collectors focusing on the extensive variety of Pikachu variants released throughout the trading card game's history.
