Moltres Card Facts & History
5 facts about this card
Card History
This non-holo Moltres is the playable twin of Fossil’s holo Moltres, carrying the same Wildfire and Dive Bomb attacks while giving collectors a second way to own one of the set’s original legendary birds.
Set Lore
Moltres #27 comes from Fossil, the Pokémon TCG’s third English expansion, a landmark Wizards of the Coast era set that helped define the early legendary-bird chase alongside Articuno and Zapdos.
Artist
The card was illustrated by Mitsuhiro Arita, one of the foundational artists of the Pokémon TCG, who says his first professional illustration project was the Pokémon card game itself.
In-Game
Moltres was already a mythic Kanto prize in the original games, where players could encounter it deep in Victory Road, making this Fossil card feel like a cardboard version of one of Red and Blue’s classic endgame discoveries.
Cultural Impact
For many vintage collectors, Fossil Moltres is part of the iconic original bird trio binder page, a nostalgia-heavy trio that links the earliest TCG era to one of Kanto’s most recognizable legendary groups.
