Blastoise 031/173 Holo (JP)

Blastoise features in Tag All Stars, a large Japanese set known for gathering a wide range of popular Pokemon into a single release. This is the Holo version, with the classic holographic foil treatment applied across the artwork. Blastoise is the final evolution of the Squirtle line, one of the original first generation starters, and it remains a perennial favourite among collectors who grew up with the early games.

The number 031/173 places this card within the standard numbered run, so it is not a secret rare, since the first number does not exceed the set total of 173. The appeal here is the combination of a heritage starter Pokemon and the traditional holo finish, which gives the card a familiar shine that collectors associate with the classic era of the hobby.

Tag All Stars offers plenty for set builders, and a clean holo Blastoise is a dependable pickup for anyone assembling the set or building a collection around the original Kanto starters.
