Description
This 1999 Pokémon Base Set Alakazam #1/102 Holo CGC 5.5 EX+ is a classic holographic card from the original Pokémon Base Set, the first English Pokémon Trading Card Game release produced by Wizards of the Coast (WOTC).
The Base Set remains one of the most historically significant releases in the Pokémon TCG, introducing collectors to the earliest generation of Pokémon cards and the iconic WOTC holographic foil design that defined the hobby’s early years.
This card features Alakazam, the powerful Psychic-type evolution of Kadabra and one of the most recognizable Pokémon from the original 151. Alakazam was also one of the most strategically important cards in early competitive Pokémon TCG play due to its “Damage Swap” Pokémon Power, which allowed players to move damage counters among Pokémon.
Graded CGC 5.5 (Excellent+), this card shows moderate wear consistent with the grade while maintaining solid overall eye appeal. Encapsulation by Certified Guaranty Company (CGC) ensures authenticity and long-term protection for collectors.
As a Base Set holographic rare, Alakazam remains a key card for collectors building vintage WOTC holo sets, Base Set collections, or early Pokémon TCG portfolios.
