Nah, you're all looking at it wrong. The true gems are those misprint cards and unique error cards that were accidentally released. Sure, Pikachu Illustrator is rare, but there's something cool about owning a card that wasn't supposed to exist.
If we're talking rare Pokemon cards, it's gotta be the Pikachu Illustrator. This thing is like the Holy Grail of Pokemon cards. Only a handful exist and they fetch insane prices at auctions!
