5 facts about this card
This card is the very first card in Great Encounters at #1/106, giving Blaziken a marquee spot in a Diamond & Pearl-era set best known for its heavyweight clashes and LV.X cards.
Great Encounters was released on February 13, 2008, and the set is largely sourced from Japan’s Moonlit Pursuit expansion—the same Japanese set this Blaziken originally came from.
Blaziken was the final evolution of Hoenn’s Fire-type starter line in Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire, giving this holo a direct link to one of the most beloved starter choices of Generation III.
Blaziken appeared in the anime before Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire released in games, making it one of the early Gen III teases and giving cards like this an extra sense of era-specific hype for longtime fans.
Kagemaru Himeno is one of the Pokémon TCG’s long-running illustrators from the franchise’s early years, which gives this Blaziken the kind of classic artist pedigree many vintage-era collectors actively chase.
