Pokemon Go Card Appraisal

Bulbasaur Pokémon GO Trading Card

This item is a 'BASIC' type Pokémon trading card, featuring the character Bulbasaur. The card has a vibrant yellow border encapsulating the main artwork and statistics. The central illustration depicts Bulbasaur, a small, green, reptilian creature with a plant bulb on its back, set against a background of lush foliage and what appears to be an urban or park setting with a stone structure resembling a chess piece or statue. The card's 'HP' is indicated as '70' next to a green circular symbol, likely representing a Grass-type Pokémon. Below the illustration, the card lists two attacks: 'Vine Whip' and 'Razor Leaf', with corresponding damage values of '10' and '20' respectively. The background of the attack section features a repeating pattern of leaf motifs in varying shades of green. At the bottom of the card, there are indicators for 'weakness' (fire symbol with 'x2' damage multiplier), and 'resistance' (blank), and 'retreat' cost (two colorless energy symbols). A 'Pokémon GO' logo is visible on the right side of the illustration, indicating this card is part of the Pokémon GO collaboration set. The card's overall condition appears to be excellent, with sharp corners and no visible creases, tears, or significant surface abrasions. The color saturation is strong, and the printing is clear and crisp, suggesting it is a relatively new or well-preserved card. Manufacturing details are visible along the bottom edge, including copyright information for Nintendo, Creatures, and GAME FREAK, along with the set year '2022 Pokémon / Nintendo / Creatures / GAME FREAK'. This places its estimated age around 2022. The card's construction appears to be standard laminated cardstock, typical of collectible trading cards, demonstrating good quality and craftsmanship.
