Got this card from a $1000 platinum pack. I spent around $2000 total. I was doing a bunch of $50 and $100 packs. I decided to go big on one $1000 pack and got lucky. Thoughts on this card?

Aloha Everybody! I have recently gotten back into the hobby about 8 months ago. I haven’t collected, since I was a kid. It’s been good overall and I’m having a lot of fun being apart of the community, while also learning along the way.

I bought in on this card at $1500 during this bull run and I believe it will be a $5000 in the next 5 years.
Here is my reasoning and own personal opinion.

1. Simply put its Pikachu. He is the most popular and favorited pokemon in the most popular franchise of all time alongside Charizard. These guys will stand the test of time.
2. Red is the trainer on this card. He is the Main Protagonist for the Gen 1 Games (Red,Blue,Yellow). There is also a rumor that Netflix has a live action Pokemon series in the making starring Red as the main protagonist. This will hype it up more.
3. One of the best Pikachu/Trainer cards next to Lost Origin Pikachu V, Pikachu Vmax, Pikachu Trainer gallery, and Cosmic Eclipse Pikachu.
4. It’s a Promo and apart of the Pokemon Center 20th Anniversary Campaign.
5. The Stamped Promo (Pikachu on Kimono Girl) has a very similar PSA Pop and Gem Rate. It goes for $5000.

Lastly it’s a very cool looking card.

What are your honest opinions on this card and the outlook long term?
Thanks in advance for your time.
