Blastoise ex Special Illustration Rare #200
There’s something about this card that just exudes confidence. And, you know, when you’re Mitsuhiro Arita, that’s well earned. There’s that wonderful call-back to the original Squirtle, with the bubbles rising in the water, but more than anything else, this is a masterclass in lighting.
It’s not even close between this and the Venusaur, either, Blastoise picking up an extra $8 at $54 a go.
Which of course leaves us with the inevitable…
