Which print variants of 26 exist, and what do they cost?

Raichu 26 is on record in the Holofoil finish, and that is the only finish this site holds a price for. Any other finish is marked no price record below, which is not the same as saying the card was never printed that way.

The area outside the picture catches the light

The border around the artwork is foiled instead.

This pane is Raticate 20, a card from the same set, borrowed so the two finishes can be compared side by side. Raichu 26 has no Reverse Holofoil on record here, and that is a statement about our price record rather than a claim about what was printed.

The left pane is Raichu 26. The right pane is a different card, standing in so the two finishes can be held side by side — this card has no Reverse Holofoil on record here. Compare where the light sits, not the cards themselves. If you have motion reduced on your device the tilt stops and only the light remains.

On cards that were given several finishes the gap is wide — an early 1st Edition print can run five to eight times the plain one. Same artwork, same number, and the price is decided by a single mark under the picture.

Raichu 26 carries none of that risk here, because one finish is all this site holds a price for. The flip side is that there is no print premium showing in these figures — what moves this price is the grade and whether the copy is genuine.

This name was printed 110 times across different sets. Some share the very same artwork in a different edition; others carry different art or different attacks under the same name. Set, rarity and version, not the Pokémon, decide the gap between them.

Who illustrated Raichu 26?

Naoyo Kimura is credited on 255 cards in this archive. The prints above are the ones that currently carry the highest prices, which is the quickest way to see the kind of card this artist tends to be given.

An illustrator is a way of sorting cards, not a reason for their price. Buying another card by the same hand does not carry the price across — what makes the price is the Pokémon, the rarity and the year, and the numbers for that sit in the ranking section.

A price quoted in euros moves with the exchange rate, and an order that crosses a border can pick up import duty on arrival, so a European total can change place between one day and the next.

The figures from the sections above, tied together once more.

What makes the price of Raichu

  1. Raichu — the Pokémon this card is, and the group it is ranked inside
  2. Rare — 151, so supply came from how many packs of that set were opened, at the rate this rarity is inserted

What holds the price where it is

  • It sits at 29% of its own 1-year range, between $0.78 and $2.09 — priced where it has usually been

Which Pokémon cards moved most since yesterday?

Measured across 30,444 priced cards between August 13, 2026 and August 14, 2026. Cards under $5 and moves under half a percent are left out, because rounding alone can produce them.

Both lists are recalculated once a day, after the source archive is refreshed — the readings compared here are August 13, 2026 against August 14, 2026. Cards under $5 are left out of the ranking, because a one-cent move on a card worth a few cents becomes a double-digit percentage and would bury everything else.

Turning the page does not change the address of this page — all 65 cards sit on this one page, 50 at a time. Cards with no published image still hold their place in the grid, showing name, set and number, so the count above stays true.

Grouping by the Pokémon answers "is mine the expensive one". Grouping by the exact name answers "am I looking at the print I think I am". The two questions land buyers in very different places, which is why they are kept apart here.

Raichu 26 price — frequently asked questions

How much is Raichu 26 worth?

Raichu 26 has a market price of $1.16, and the cheapest copy on sale is $0.38, read on August 14, 2026. Both figures are for ungraded cards.

Is Raichu 26 rare?

Raichu 26 is a Rare, which means it was pulled from 151 packs at the rate that rarity is inserted into them. Its supply is set by how many packs were opened, and it carries the set number printed under the picture. Among 88 priced Raichu prints it sits at number 63, so it sits in the lower third of what this Pokémon costs, which is where the affordable prints are.

Why is another Raichu selling for much more?

Raichu was printed in 110 different sets. The artwork looks alike, but the set name and the card number under the picture are different, and so is the price. Check the number before you buy.

Should I get Raichu graded?

No grading figure for Raichu 26 is published here. Graded prices and population counts come from paid grading services under commercial plans that are not in use on this site, so the question cannot be answered with data. What can be said is the ungraded price above, which is the floor any grading decision starts from.

Is the German or French Raichu cheaper?

No. The six European language printings of Raichu share one product record, so they trade at the same price. Only the Japanese release is a separate card, because Japan uses a different set and numbering system.

Does tournament play affect what Raichu 26 sells for?

Yes, and mostly by keeping it out. Raichu 26 is legal in Unlimited and Standard and Expanded only, so it is not bought to fill a competitive deck — its price is set by collectors instead, which is why it moves with condition and print rather than with the season's results.

Do these Raichu prices include shipping or tax?

No. Every figure on this page is the listed price of Raichu 26 itself. Shipping, import duty and marketplace fees are added on top by the seller.

How often does the Raichu 26 price update?

Once a day. The Raichu 26 archive behind this page holds 381 daily readings, the oldest from July 30, 2025 and the newest from August 14, 2026.
