PSA Graded Card - Certification #98741434 - Grade: GEM MT 10

This card is a full-art 'Illustration Rare' featuring Bulbasaur, an iconic first generation Pokémon. Art by Toriyuki Ikegami shows Bulbasaur nestled within detailed, vibrant, heavily leafed foliage, rendered in a painterly, storybook style. The background is a lush, colorful forest with many green, yellow, and blue tones. The card frame has a silver border typical of modern English Pokémon cards. In the lower left, a gold star and the 'Illustration Rare' label indicate its rarity. The bottom right features card text with Pokédex flavor. No visible edge, corner, or surface flaws are seen due to the PSA 10 'Gem Mint' grade. The card is holographic, using Pokémon TCG’s traditional foil technique for full-art secret rares, with vibrant, swirling reflective effects. The secret rare numbering (166/165) designates it as an over-numbered rare. Distinctive elements include the fully illustrated art beyond the usual frame, the unique set logo, and its position as a sought-after chase card in the 151 set.
