Dark Dragonair 33/82 - Pokémon Team Rocket Set (1st Edition Variant)

This is a Pokémon Trading Card Game card featuring the character 'Dark Dragonair,' identified as card number 33 out of 82 from the Team Rocket expansion set, which was released in North America in April 2000 by Wizards of the Coast. The card is a Stage 1 Pokémon with 60 HP. Its physical construction consists of a standard cardstock format with a yellow border and a non-holographic art box. The illustration, created by artist Kagemaru Himeno, depicts Dragonair surrounded by crystals in a purple-toned setting. Notable markings include the 'Stage 1' evolution icon in the top left, the 'R' symbol (indicating the Rocket set) on the right side of the art box, and the 1st Edition 'Edition 1' circular stamp located to the left of the card's center text. The card is currently housed in a plastic page sleeve. In terms of condition, there is significant whitening and edge wear visible on the bottom edge and corners of the card behind this one (the blue card back visible at the bottom), which suggests this collection may have been played. The Dark Dragonair card itself shows some minor surface light reflections but appears mostly flat; however, the lower-right corner of the stack shows fraying. The copyright line at the bottom indicates a timeframe of 1995, 96, 98 Nintendo, Creatures, GAMEFREAK, ©1999-2000 Wizards.
