Since I barely post on this forum (although I do look very often at the News section), I'm sure almost no one here knows who I am, so let's start with a brief introduction:
My name is Kevin, and I'm a collector from The Netherlands who collects Pikachu and Seviper cards in all 14 languages and variations. At time of writing, I own pver 1600 unique Pikachu cards (missing 12 official, and a bunch of unofficial releases), and all existing Seviper cards. I used to own the largest Pikachu TCG collection in the world in 2017, but in 2018 a fellow collector and online friend of mine surpassed me. He currently has around 100 more Pikachu cards than me (mostly misprints and autographed cards, with official releases we're about equal).
I also have a bunch of other collections, like all sealed variations of the Moltres WotC #21 promo (currently have the final sealed variation incoming: a Japanese 1st edition Pokémon Web booster pack with Moltres in it); all English and Japanese exclusive Full Art Supporters (also 100% complete, including the rare Japanese cards like The Masked Royal, Extra Battle Day promos, etc.); a National Index collection including all forms and shiny Pokémon (this collection I stopped. I might add the latest gen 8 one day, but I will probably no longer add Shiny Pokémon); a Yu-Gi-Oh rarity collection (paused at the moment, but I do plan on continuing it one day); etc.
So, onto the actual WTB thread. All added prices are just an idea of what I'm willing to spend for an EX/NM copy including shipping towards me, but all prices are of course negotiable. Also note, I am willing to buy any condition, even heavy played or PSA-1 graded. NM ungraded is simply my preference, but not a pre. It's hard enough to find these cards as is without worrying about condition.
Pikachus:
Here is my spreadsheet.
I've grouped these per language, since there are quite a few I'm still missing (despite already having almost 1400 in my possession).
Official releases / main wanted Pikachu cards:
Other random wanted cards:
If anyone spots any cards missing from any of my checklists, lmk.
