This 1996 Pokémon Japanese Expansion Pack Holo Venusaur #3 is graded BGS 9.5 Gem Mint, backed by subgrades of 9.5 Centering, 9.5 Corners, 10 Edges, and 10 Surface. Illustrated by Mitsuhiro Arita, the card displays the Japanese-exclusive star holofoil pattern across the artwork frame. In Beckett's population registry, exactly 80 copies have earned this Gem Mint designation. Originating from Media Factory's October 1996 launch set in Japan, this issue represents the true original printing of the Pokémon Trading Card Game, predating the Western Base Set release by over two years. Featuring the classic classic Japanese "Pocket Monsters" card back layout, Venusaur stands alongside Charizard and Blastoise as one of the fundamental Kanto starter chase cards from the TCG's debut era.Show more
