This 2000 Pokémon Neo Genesis Lugia #9 represents the first-ever holographic appearance of the Johto region's legendary mascot. As the undisputed chase card of the Neo Genesis set, this card marked the franchise's transition into the Gold and Silver era, introducing the second generation of Pokémon to the TCG. Illustrated by Hironobu Yoshida, the card features the Diving Pokémon against the era-specific cosmic foil pattern that characterizes early Wizards of the Coast releases. This example is graded a CGC 8 NM/MINT, a respectable grade for a set frequently impacted by print lines and factory silvering. With a population of 316 in this grade, it remains a reachable entry point for collectors focusing on the Johto era's premier holo. Interest in the Neo series continues to be fueled by its legacy as the debut of the 100 Johto Pokémon, and the Lugia holo remains the most recognizable and trending piece from the original 111-card checklist.Show more
