This is a 1st Edition Shining Tyranitar #113 from the 2002 Pokémon Neo Destiny expansion, graded PSA Gem Mint 10. Illustrated by Ken Sugimori, this card features the distinct Neo-era aesthetic where the holographic foil is applied directly to the character illustration rather than the background. Achieving a PSA 10 grade is highly challenging due to the condition-sensitive dark borders and the vulnerability of the textured metallic foil to scratching. With a PSA 10 population of just 176 examples, this card stands as a blue-chip, investment-grade asset for premier TCG portfolios.
Neo Destiny represents the final set of the Neo Series and the historic end of 1st Edition English printings by Wizards of the Coast. As a "Shining" Pokémon, it carries the unique deck-limit restriction printed above the art box: "You can't have more than 1 Shining Tyranitar in your deck." The combination of its low pull rates from 2002 booster packs, its status as a top-tier chase card, and the pristine preservation of its delicate holofoil surface cements this card's legacy in Pokémon TCG history.Show more
