Shining Magikarp Pokémon Trading Card

This is a highly sought-after 'Shining Magikarp' trading card from the Pokémon Neo Revelation set, specifically numbered 66/64. The card features a distinct golden-hued Magikarp, a departure from its typical orange color, signaling its status as a 'Shiny' Pokémon. The artwork by Ken Sugimori is set against a dark blue underwater background with visible holographic foil effects on the Pokémon itself, which was a unique printing technique for 'Shining' cards of this era (circa 2001). The card is a Basic Pokémon with 30 HP and lists two specific moves: 'Gold Scale' and 'Dragon Bond'. Physically, the card maintains its standard 2.5 by 3.5 inch dimensions on cardstock with a yellow primary border. The bottom right includes the Neo Revelation expansion symbol (a three-pronged crown). Notable condition aspects visible include slight surface wear and possible edge whitening, though it appears generally well-preserved. There is a specific rarity star with three small dots, indicating its 'Secret Rare' status. The bottom text credits Nintendo, Creatures, and GAMEFREAK, dating it between 1995-2001. The centering appears slightly offset toward the right margin. This card is a key collectible for enthusiasts of the early Wizards of the Coast era of the Pokémon TCG.
