Basculin 024/086 Poke Ball

This is Basculin, card number 024/086 from the English White Flare set. It is a Poke Ball pattern card, a reverse holo version where the foil is decorated with a repeating Poke Ball motif across the face. That patterned finish is what marks it apart from the standard version of the same card.

White Flare belongs to the Scarlet and Violet era of releases, and its Poke Ball pattern cards have a steady following among collectors who enjoy chasing a full patterned run alongside the regular set numbering. Basculin is a Pokemon originally from the Unova region, recognisable for its aggressive, fish like design.

This version draws interest because the Poke Ball pattern gives an everyday card a distinctive holographic look, and tracking down sharp, well centred copies to complete a patterned set is part of what keeps collectors coming back.
