2016 Pokémon Japanese SM Promo | Pretend Team Skull Pikachu #013/SM-P
Grade: PSA 10 Gem Mint | Special Box Exclusive | Full Art Holo
The Ultimate Alolan Cosplay Pikachu Up for sale is the legendary Pretend Team Skull Grunt Pikachu (013/SM-P). This card was only available inside the "Pretend Grunt Pikachu Special Box" sold exclusively at Pokémon Centers in Japan in late 2016. It features Pikachu dressed in the signature bandana and outfit of a Team Skull Grunt, complete with the mischievous attitude the team is known for.

Condition & Grading: PSA 10 Gem Mint This specimen has achieved the prestigious PSA 10 Gem Mint grade. Japanese promos from this era are famous for their high-quality card stock and vibrant holographic finishes, but they are notoriously difficult to grade due to the delicate edges of cards often removed from sealed boxes.

Surface: Flawless holo-pattern with no factory print lines or surface scratches.

Edges & Corners: Sharp and pristine, with the deep "Japanese blue" back perfectly preserved.

Eye Appeal: The Full Art design pops with incredible color contrast, making it one of the most visually stunning Pikachu promos ever produced.

Investment & Market Significance The "Pretend Grunt" and "Poncho" Pikachu series are widely considered some of the best investment-grade Pokémon cards of the last decade. Because they were never released in English, international demand is massive. As the Sun & Moon era enters "modern vintage" status, PSA 10 copies of these specific promos have become blue-chip assets for high-end Pikachu collectors.
