4/11/2023 0 Comments Blastoise exThe Pokemon Base Set kicked off the Pokemon Trading Card Game craze in the United States in 1999, but its various print runs can make a big difference in pricing. The price on a PSA 10 would be far higher. The "no rarity" Blastoises are much more difficult to find as PSA has graded just 135 of them compared to 1,548 regular base set Blastoises.įorty of the "no rarity" Blastoises have received a PSA 8 grade, like this one that sold for $2,326 recently, while just four have received a PSA 10 grade. Holographic cards in the set feature a star symbol, so if you find a Blastoise card without the rarity symbol, then you know you're looking at the more rare, first-print "no rarity" Blastoise. Most Japanese basic set cards will contain a "rarity symbol" in the lower-right corner of the card that varies based on the card type. The Basic Set cards and their illustrations by artists Ken Sugimori, Mitsuhiro Arita, and Keiji Kinebuchi are now iconic in the card collecting community. The Pokemon Trading Card Game officially launched in Japan in October 1996 when Media Factory began distributing its now-legendary trading card game based on the Pokemon series.
