The Story
The Psychic Master in Gold
Alakazam ★ is one of the most visually striking Gold Stars in the series. The Psi Pokémon's shiny form — a warm pink-purple instead of the standard yellow — gives Alakazam an ethereal, almost mystical appearance perfectly suited to its psychic nature.
At 100 HP, Alakazam ★ was one of the most powerful Gold Stars. This was fitting for a Pokémon that had been a dominant force since Generation I — one of the "big four" Psychics alongside Mewtwo, Gengar, and Hypno.
Alakazam holds a special place in Gen I nostalgia. The Pokémon that required a trade to evolve, a staple of competitive play, and one of the original 151 — Alakazam has a deep fanbase that ensures strong demand for premium cards.
Pink Alakazam radiates psychic energy even in foil form — this is one of Fukuda's most otherworldly Gold Stars.
