Pokemon enters the record books with Pikachu mosaic using 12,987 trading cards

The Pokemon Company International has teamed up with British artist Quentin Devine to create the largest trading card mosaic.

The piece, unveiled in Paris today, is comprised of 12,987 individual Pokemon Trading Card Game cards, measures at 71.54 square meters, and hangs at over 10 meters tall and 7 meters wide. It has managed to secure a new world record, interestingly enough.

The newly-unveiled mosaic features an image of Pikachu, using the original iconic pose drawn by Game Freak illustrator Ken Sugimori.
