DARK ALAKAZAM-HOLO | 1997 POKEMON JAPANESE ROCKET 65 | PSA MINT 9
PSA Graded Card - Certification #102617264 - Grade: MINT 9
This is a classic PokĆ©mon card from the Japanese Team Rocket set, produced by Media Factory in 1997. The card features Dark Alakazam ("ććććć¼ćć£ć³") depicted in a dynamic art style by Ken Sugimori, against a sparkling holographic background characteristic of holofoil cards. The border is standard yellow, and the background behind the character is filled with twinkling holographic patterns that enhance its visual appeal. The card uses only Japanese text, and displays set and number details (No. 065) at the bottom right. The card includes the Team Rocket "R" symbol, identifying it as part of the 'villains' set, with a small evolution box in the upper left. Condition (as slabbed): the card is graded PSA 9 Mint, indicating sharp corners, little to no wear, and strong centering. No autograph is present. This issue helped the Rocket set stand out as the first expansion focusing on 'dark' or 'corrupted' PokĆ©mon, with an iconic darker color palette. It is distinguished from the English version by its Japanese text and the earlier set release.
