Squirtle 048 Cosmos Holo

Squirtle 048 Cosmos Holo is a Promo card, which places it outside the standard expansion sets. Promos are usually distributed through special channels such as collection boxes and tie in products, and they hold a separate place in many collections because they fall outside the main set list.

Squirtle is one of the original Kanto starters and remains a favourite across every generation of collectors. This printing carries a Cosmos Holo finish, a patterned holographic background scattered with small star like flecks across the whole card, which gives the surface a soft, sparkling look. The Cosmos Holo treatment is well liked by collectors who enjoy classic holo styles, and combining it with a Pokemon as recognisable as Squirtle makes this Promo a card that suits both Squirtle fans and collectors who like to track down holo variants of the early starters.
