$100.00USD

PSA Graded Card - Certification #118914268 - Grade: PR 1

This card features Venusaur, a popular Stage 2 Pokémon, illustrated by Ken Sugimori. The front of the card displays a strong, central illustration of Venusaur on a holographic (holofoil) background, giving it a shimmering effect when viewed under light. The background features a jungle/forest motif with shades of blue and green. The card uses yellow borders, which is standard for early WOTC Pokémon cards. The upper corner identifies this as a promo card with a distinctive Black Star PROMO symbol to the right of the illustration. The card text describes its Pokémon Power (Solar Power) and its attack (Mega Drain), with clear color coding for energy cost and HP. The lower right corner contains the card's promo numbering ('13'), and the lower left credits the illustrator and copyright information (1995, 96, 98, 99–2000 Wizards, Nintendo, Creatures, GAMEFREAK). This specific card shows significant playwear/edge wear and surface scratches, especially around the borders and holo area, which is consistent with its PSA 1 (Poor) grading. No special technologies beyond the standard early WOTC holo printing are present. This issue was distributed as a promotional card, not from regular packs, which increases its collectibility.
