25 Rarest Pokémon Cards
Keeping this in view, how do I know if my Pokemon card is rare?
Look in the bottom right corner of the card to find the rarity symbol, next to the card number:
- A circle means the card is common, while a diamond marks uncommon cards.
- A star means the card is rare, while a star H or three stars are special, extra-rare cards.
Correspondingly, what is the rarest Pokemon card in the world?
"Pikachu Illustrator" is considered the rarest Pokémon trading card in existence, and only 39 were produced back in 1998. The card features artwork by Pikachu's creator Atsuko Nishida, and was only given away to the winners of an illustration contest.
The upcoming Pokémon TCG expansion contains over 90 special cards, including Shiny Pokémon and golden rare Secret cards.
