This 2003 Kyogre ex holds a unique place in Pokémon TCG history as card #001 of the Nintendo Black Star Promo series, originally distributed through Nintendo Power magazine to mark the launch of the Hoenn era. Graded a PSA 9 Mint, this example comes from a population of 141 at this grade, showing excellent preservation for a promotional release from over two decades ago. Illustrated by Hiromichi Sugiyama, the card features the early EX-series aesthetic, complete with the era-specific e-Reader border and the high-risk, high-reward 'ex' mechanic that changed competitive play. As the very first entry in the Nintendo-produced promo line following the transition from Wizards of the Coast, it represents a foundational moment for Gen 3 collectors. The combination of its status as a debut promo and the enduring popularity of the Legendary Kyogre makes this a standout piece from the early 2000s.Show more
