Ivysaur Pokémon Card (Legendary Collection)

This is a physical Stage 1 Ivysaur Pokémon trading card from the 'Legendary Collection' set, released by Wizards of the Coast in 2002. The card features an illustration by Ken Sugimori, depicting the Seed Pokémon with its characteristic pink flower bud. The card displays standard dimensions of approximately 2.5 by 3.5 inches. It is identified as card number 44/110 by the set symbol (a medal) on the right side of the card body. The condition of the card is heavily played to poor. Visible defects include significant whitening and fraying along all edges and corners, suggesting considerable surface friction and handling. There are also noticeable surface scratches and dirt buildup, particularly visible along the top yellow border. The card is currently housed in a plastic binder sleeve, which appears to have some moisture or residue trapped against the card surface. The center centering seems slightly biased towards the right. Despite its age, the extensive physical wear significantly impacts its collectibility grade.
