Pikachu & Zekrom GX - SM248: Rarity & Collectibility
Pikachu & Zekrom GX - SM248 in its sought-after Holofoil variant sits at the most plentiful end of the rarity scale — easy to pull and easy to find. Cataloged as Common #SM248 of the SM Promos set, it is the kind of card RarePokemonCard tracks for scarcity and collector demand rather than raw price alone. The harder a card is to pull in top condition, the more weight serious collectors place on it.
How Rare & Valuable Is Pikachu & Zekrom GX - SM248?
In 2026, a Near Mint Pikachu & Zekrom GX - SM248 (Common, SM Promos #SM248) changes hands at roughly $31.19, and availability keeps it within easy reach for collectors. Because demand concentrates on clean copies, surface wear is punished hard: a Near Mint example commands about $31.19, whereas a Damaged one slides to around $13.80. Across the wear scale that reads Near Mint $31.19, Lightly Played $29.51, Moderately Played $23.43, Heavily Played $18.17, Damaged $13.80 — proof that for a collectible like this, presentation is inseparable from value. At the very top, a gem-mint PSA 10 Pikachu & Zekrom GX - SM248 is valued near $171.33 — about 5.5x the raw copy, the clearest sign of how much collectors pay for flawless scarcity.
Graded Pikachu & Zekrom GX - SM248: Gem Mint & Population
Even for a card at this rarity, the top of the market belongs to certified gem-mint copies. A PSA 10 (or CGC 10 / BGS Black Label equivalent) Pikachu & Zekrom GX - SM248 sits around $171.33 — roughly 5.5x a raw copy. That gap exists because relatively few examples ever earn a perfect grade, so gem-mint population is the real scarcity collectors chase. Step down a notch and demand spreads across PSA 9 $44.99, CGC 10 $179.99, CGC 9.5 $37.99 — each tier a smaller, scarcer pool than the one below it. The rule of thumb for collectors: the rarer the card, the more a certified high grade matters to its standing.
