Expedition Set Mareep Appraisal

Mareep Pokemon Trading Card (Expedition Base Set)

This item is a 2002 Pokemon Trading Card featuring the character Mareep, numbered 119/165 from the Expedition Base Set. It is a standard card made of laminated cardstock with a yellow border and distinctive 'e-Reader' dot-code strips on the left and bottom margins. The artwork by Sumiyoshi Kizuki depicts a stylized Mareep against a patterned orange and yellow background. Notable features include the 40 HP stat, Thundershock attack text, and the 'e-Reader' logo in the bottom-left corner. The condition of the card is heavily degraded; visible issues include extreme edge wear, extensive whitening on all four corners, a prominent surface scratch or crease on the right edge, and significant dirt or staining across the yellow border and text field. The card appears to have been played without protection and shows visible fiber damage from friction. It displays an ID number B-17-# below the artwork, characteristic of the early Wizards of the Coast e-Card era.
