is again Pokémon, and the familiar internet celebrity.
As an internet celebrity who loves Pokémon, Logan Paul's recent life content is basically related to Pokémon elements.
At the end of last year, he sealed 15 limited edition GBCh into resin and made a "handheld desktop" worth tens of thousands of dollars:
The equipment sealed includes the rare "Pokemon Limited Host"
also spent a lot of money to invest in game cards, and once popularized Pokemon cards Brand Market:
Live Opening is his popular program
As an internet celebrity, Paul's behavior is often very controversial and topical, so it also makes him frequently appear in reports from various media; and this time his behavior is still crazy - he spent $6 million to buy a rare Pokémon card and walked onto the WWE stage with it.
On April 3, World Wrestling Entertainment WWE welcomed a contestant with a high value:
The famous internet celebrity Paul took his partner to the ring. In addition to the regular wrestling robe, he also had a transparent protection box hanging around his neck, and the box contained a Pokémon card known as the rarest - illustrator Pikachu. In order to win this card, Paul spent nearly 6 million US dollars. The reason why this card is sold at a sky-high price is because its way of obtaining is quite special. It is the excellent prize of the illustration competition held by the Nintendo in 1997. There have only been 39 pictures in total, and only less than 10 of them have appeared on the market. Because of the small number of existences, it was once the most valuable collection in the Pokémon card collection world. The last time the card
appeared in 2019. "illustrator Pikachu" appeared at an auction house in New York, USA and was finally sold for $220,000.
But obviously, this price is still far from Paul's 7-digit sky-high price. Paul eventually spent $5275,000 on this card. Due to this outrageously high price, Paul and his card were also recognized by the Guinness World Record:
This is the highest-sold Pokémon card
Although the price of the card is ridiculously high, for Paul, this is not a loss-making deal. Adding value to his collection by participating in the competition has been a tried-and-eat method for him. Last year, Paul wore his $150,000 "Fire Spit Duck" to fight professional boxers:
Although most viewers also knew it well, this was just a gimmick for Paul's hype, on the day of the competition, both the live channel and the scene were still attracted. Many curious viewers, Paul also said afterwards: "I believe this card can be worth one million now."
In Paul's opinion, this "illustrator Pikachu" is obviously more room for appreciation, because it is still the only card with a quality rating of "10" (perfect). Paul spent 4 million yuan and a card with a quality "9" to buy it from an Italian collector. Although
is considered a sky-high price, Paul with this card also showed his courage. With his wrestling experience, he even got a small point advantage in the game. As for the outrageous price this card will soar to the future, he can only leave it to time to test:
