Charmeleon 169/165

This is Charmeleon, card 169/165 from the 151 set. Because the first number, 169, exceeds the set total of 165, it sits beyond the main checklist as one of the Illustration Rare cards. An Illustration Rare presents the Pokemon in a full scene illustration that shows it in a natural setting rather than the standard portrait layout.

The 151 set revisits the original Kanto Pokedex, combining nostalgic subjects with modern artwork, and its illustration rares are among the most collected cards of the release. Charmeleon, the middle stage of the Charmander line, holds a place in that lineup that appeals to fans of the original starters.

A Charmeleon Illustration Rare from 151 suits collectors building the set, those following the Charmander evolution line, and anyone drawn to the Kanto themed artwork of this release.
