POKEMON JAPANESE BASE SET BOOSTER PACK

The Japanese Base Set, released in 1996, is the very first Pokémon TCG set ever printed, marking the beginning of the franchise’s iconic trading card legacy. Featuring original artwork by Ken Sugimori and others, the set includes legendary cards like Charizard, Blastoise, and Venusaur, with no rarity symbols on the earliest prints—making them especially prized among collectors. With clean borders, vibrant colors, and a minimalist design, this set captures the raw nostalgia of Pokémon’s origins. As the foundation of the TCG, Japanese Base Set cards are highly sought after for their historical value, rarity, and cultural significance in Pokémon history.
