Charmander [Shadowless] Card Facts & History
5 facts about this card
Card History
Charmander #46 is one of the iconic non-holo commons from the original English Base Set, and the Shadowless version comes from the early 1999 print run that collectors chase for its cleaner border treatment and true first-wave look.
Artist
This card was illustrated by Mitsuhiro Arita, one of the foundational artists of the Pokémon TCG whose work helped define the visual identity of the hobby’s earliest cards.
In-Game
Charmander was introduced as one of the original Kanto starters in Pokémon Red and Blue, which gives this Base Set card extra nostalgia as one of the first starter Pokémon many players ever chose.
Card History
Its attacks, Scratch and Ember, mirror Charmander’s early-game identity perfectly: a simple opening strike followed by a stronger Fire attack that asks you to discard Energy, just like the resource tradeoffs that defined classic Base Set gameplay.
Set Lore
Base Set cards are especially recognizable because they have no set symbol, so a Shadowless Charmander instantly signals ‘original era’ to vintage collectors flipping through a binder.
