Pidgey 207/197

Pidgey is an Illustration Rare from Obsidian Flames, an English set in the Scarlet and Violet era. Illustration Rares (often shortened to IR) are loved for their expanded artwork, which sets the Pokemon within a full scene rather than a plain border and gives each card a stronger sense of atmosphere and character.

The number 207/197 sits above the main set total of 197, which is normal for Illustration Rares as they occupy the bonus slots beyond the base numbering. Pidgey is one of the most familiar early game Pokemon from the original generation, and seeing such a common companion given the IR treatment is part of the charm. Collectors often chase these cards to capture the everyday Pokemon in their most detailed artwork.

At Monster Mart this is offered as a single card in mint condition, ready for your binder or display.
