This 1996 Japanese Pokémon Expansion Pack Charmander features the foundational artwork of Mitsuhiro Arita, capturing one of the most recognizable characters in the franchise. As card #004 from the very first Pokémon TCG set ever released, it represents the genesis of the hobby in its original Japanese format. This copy is graded PSA Gem Mint 10, a top-tier grade with a population of 836. While early Japanese cards from this era are known for their distinct gloss and thinner card stock compared to later Western releases, this specimen has maintained its condition for nearly three decades. Given the enduring popularity of the Kanto starters and the historical significance of the 1996 debut set, this is a clean, well-preserved piece for any collector focused on the origins of the Pocket Monsters Card Game.Show more
