Bulbasaur SVP 046 Black Star Promo Pokemon Card

This is an official Pokemon Trading Card Game (TCG) item featuring the character Bulbasaur, identified by the card number SVP 046. It is a 'Black Star Promo' from the Scarlet & Violet series, specifically known for being a promotional include in Pokémon Center 151 products. The card features a 'Cosmos' or 'Galaxy' holofoil pattern across the entire border and artwork box, characterized by circular glitter-like flashes. The illustration, created by artist OKACHEKE, depicts Bulbasaur in a lush, sun-dappled forest setting. The card is printed on standard cardstock and is shown protected by a semi-rigid top-loader sleeve. As a Basic Grass-type Pokemon with 70 HP, it lists the move 'Vine Whip' for 50 damage. Regarding condition, the card appears to have a slight factory defect or ink dot near the bottom of the 'Vine Whip' text area. The centering looks relatively balanced, with standard gray borders typical of the modern Scarlet & Violet era cards in the English language. No significant corner wear or surface scratches are immediately visible through the protective casing, suggesting a Near-Mint state aside from potential minor printing inconsistencies.
