Graded BGS 9 Mint, this 2001 Japanese Pokémon Web Series 1st Edition Dark Charizard (#042/048) features artwork by Ken Sugimori. The card earned BGS subgrades of 9 for Centering, 9 for Corners, 9 for Edges, and 9.5 for Surface. In the Beckett population report, 7 copies share this grade, with very few graded higher. Released in late 2001, the Japanese Pokémon Web set was distributed exclusively online through the Pokémon Center Online service rather than traditional booster packs. The expansion adapted iconic earlier artwork—including this Dark Charizard illustration originally created for the Team Rocket set—into the newly introduced e-Reader layout. Due to the limited order window and unique mail-order fulfillment model, 1st Edition holofoil cards from the Web set stand as a distinct, low-print release within early Japanese TCG history.Show more
