PSA Graded Card - Certification #99394317 - Grade: GEM MT 10

This is a Japanese Pokémon trading card featuring Vulpix from the original 1996 Japanese Basic 'Expansion Pack' set. The card background is a fiery orange-red gradient with gold trim, with a central box housing a classic Ken Sugimori illustration of Vulpix. The top of the card prominently displays its name in Japanese (ロコン), its level (LV.11), and its HP (HP50) with a Fire type symbol. The attack text and card information are also in Japanese. The card is housed in a PSA holder, graded GEM MT 10 (Gem Mint), which is the highest possible grade, indicating pristine condition: sharp corners, perfect centering, and no visible flaws. Printing techniques are traditional for the era, featuring flat, non-holographic card stock and vivid ink. This early set and original art are historically significant as part of the first Pokémon TCG release, making it highly collectible. The card number is shown as No.037, aligning it with the Pokedex numbering. Iconic features are its Japanese language text, original art, and association with the groundbreaking 1996 launch.
