5 facts about this card
This Trainer Deck B Blastoise comes from a deck that was distributed to prototype Pokémon Leagues before the Pokémon TCG officially launched in North America, giving the card true pre-release history that few Base Set variants can match.
Trainer Deck B is famous among collectors because its Blastoise is the only non-holo Base Set print of Blastoise released by Wizards of the Coast, making it one of the most distinctive WotC-era oddities.
The artwork on this card is by Ken Sugimori, and Bulbapedia notes this same illustration was the original Base Set Blastoise art before being reused on later commemorative reprints.
Blastoise is one of the original fully evolved Kanto starters and served as the box mascot for Pokémon Blue, which helps explain why early Blastoise cards carry such iconic status with longtime collectors.
In the anime, Blastoise is closely tied to big-screen and rival moments, appearing with Gary Oak and in Pokémon: The First Movie, which adds extra nostalgia to one of the TCG’s most recognizable Water-types.
