Weedle [1st Edition] Card Facts & History
5 facts about this card
Card History
Weedle #69 is one of the original 102 English Base Set cards, tying this 1st Edition copy directly to the January 9, 1999 U.S. launch of the Pokémon TCG.
Artist
This card was illustrated by Mitsuhiro Arita, one of the foundational Pokémon TCG artists who has worked on the game since its inception and helped define the visual identity of early cards.
In-Game
Weedle’s attack, Poison Sting, is pulled straight from the video games, and Bulbapedia notes that this card’s English Base Set Pokédex text comes from Pokémon Red and Blue.
Set Lore
Like the Japanese Expansion Pack it descends from, Base Set is the only main Pokémon TCG expansion not to use a set symbol, a tiny design quirk that instantly marks Weedle as part of the hobby’s beginning.
Cultural Impact
A humble Common like Weedle captures the charm of early Pokémon collecting, because even the smallest Kanto species were present in the very first English set that launched the craze for a generation of fans.
