This card is a Charmander from the original 1996 Japanese Pokémon TCG Basic (Base) Set. It features Mitsuhiro Arita’s classic artwork of Charmander in a grassy field with its flame tail lit, surrounded by the set’s vintage gold-foil border. This early printing has no rarity symbol (an original release characteristic), making it a special variant coveted by collectors. As a non-holo Basic Fire-type (#004), it offers nostalgic appeal and authentic playability from the very first Pokémon trading card expansion.
