Featuring artwork by Ken Sugimori, this Electric-type Stage 1 Pokémon evolves from Pikachu and is distinguished by its shimmering holofoil finish depicting the iconic Electric Pokémon in a dynamic pose.  Mechanically, this card possesses 90 HP and features two attacks: Iron Tail ([1 Colorless], 40 damage), which deals reliable damage output; and Thunderbolt ([2 Lightning], 60 damage), which deals 60 damage and requires the player to discard a Lightning Energy attached to Raichu, providing higher damage at a resource cost. The card has a Grass Weakness of ×2, no resistance, and a retreat cost of 2 Colorless energy, with the Pokédex entry noting: "Raichu's fur is soft and silky to the touch. It stores electricity in its cheeks, which it can discharge at will." The Holo Rare version of Raichu 10/123 is particularly prized by collectors completing the HeartGold SoulSilver set the 10/123 Holo commands a significant premium due to its enhanced foil quality and distinct illustration. Its status as one of the most iconic Electric-type Pokémon in the franchise, combined with the limited PSA 10 population of only 10 copies, ensures consistent demand for raw copies in near-mint condition, particularly as the 2010 HeartGold SoulSilver era continues to gain retro collectibility value and the Pikachu/Raichu evolutionary line remains one of the most iconic in the franchise's history.
