Pokémon cards, along with Yu-Gi-Oh!, and Magic: The Gathering collectible card games have remained popular for many years, and some of the rare editions of cards are worth a lot of money.
The most expensive Pokémon card in the world is being auctioned off on eBay with a buy now price listed at 100 thousand dollars.
The card for sale is the Pikachu Illustrator, which is the most rare and expensive of all the Pokémon collectible cards and was never printed in English.
Six of the cards were printed as prizes for the winners of the Pokémon Card Game Illustration Contest, which was put on by CoroCoro magazine.
The winners of the contest received the holofoil trophy cards, which have sold for up to 20 thousand dollars.
One of the six cards is out of circulation in the Official Pokémon TCG Blog, which leaves four of them in the hands of players, and one for sale on the internet.
The eBay auction is expected to reach about 50 thousand dollars, but then again someone might cough up the asking price of 100 thousand dollars and end the bidding with a bang.
