From the 1996 Pokémon TCG Japanese Base Set, this Wartortle card showcases the classic Generation I water turtle in Ken Sugimori’s original art style. The illustration captures Wartortle mid-stride against the signature holo foil background common to early Pokémon trading cards. As a Stage 1 evolution card with all-Japanese text, it adds authentic vintage appeal to any collection or retro deck. Notably, this is the first printed Wartortle card in the Pokémon TCG, making it a nostalgic collectible for fans of the original series.
