Description

Pokémon Raichu 14 Unlimited Base Set Prerelease PSA Trading Card Game EX-MT 6 (Wizards of the Coast, 1999) Holo, Rare. At the beginning of the Pokémon Trading Card Game's English localization, Wizards of the Coast held early test leagues for trainers to battle against each other. Four prerelease cards were released and awarded through these events, made for the Jungle, Fossil, Team Rocket, and Gym Heroes expansion sets. While these were the only official WotC prerelease cards, a fifth card was printed but never released to the public. Rumors of the card spread, but it wasn't until 2006 that a photo of the card surfaced, shared by a former WotC employee. The stunning Prerelease Base Set Raichu was said to have been printed on accident during the printing of the Prerelease Jungle Clefable promo, with only a small number said to remain. Well, offered here is one of those very copies! This stunning card, with artwork done by Ken Sugimori, is easily one of the most sought after Pokémon cards in the TCG--a holy grail for any collection! This is the sole copy graded by PSA, earning an EX-MT 6. The rarity of this card cannot be understated, and Heritage Auctions is proud to present this card for the very first time.
