They’ve become very prevalent on sites such as eBay, Etsy and AliExpress – which answers the question: for the most part, these are produced in and sold from China. So you may be wondering where all of these Gold Pokemon cards come from? Are they in Pokemon God packs, or are they fake? One more official metal card is currently planned – Mew, which will appear in the Pokemon 151 set, making it one of the most valuable Pokemon 151 cards in the set. Just four official metal Pokemon cards have been released in recent years – only two of these (Charizard and Pikachu) are gold pictured above is the official gold Pikachu, from the Celebrations Ultimate Premium Collection. Though these weren’t playable in the trading card game, they were hugely popular and are still valuable even today – the Pikachu Burger King card is pictured above. We’ve already covered the official metal Pokemon cards in a different article, as well as a small look at Gold Pokemon cards – but to summarise: Burger King and Nintendo teamed up in 1999 to produce six official, gold-plated Pokemon cards.
