PSA Graded Card – Certification #98446553 – Grade: EX-MT 6

This iconic vintage Pokmon card features Zapdos as a holographic card from the original 1999 Fossil expansion set. The card design includes an electrified Zapdos in the center with a star-patterned holofoil background. Bordered in yellow, the card bears a unique Fossil set stamp to the right and features English-language text detailing its attack (Thunderstorm) and game information. This is the ‘corrected foil’ version, known for having fixed holographic printing errors found in earlier prints. The card is slabbed and graded by PSA with a grade of 6 (EX-MT – Excellent-Mint). The card is in decent shape for its age, with some edge and corner wear evident under close inspection. Printed using classic 90s Pokmon TCG holographic foil, which has a shimmering, sparkly effect. Historically, this card represents the height of the first Pokmon trading card boom and is a key legendary bird card from the Fossil set. Distinctive elements include the set symbol, copyright line, illustrator Mitsuhiro Arita, and the holofoil design. The inclusion of the ‘corrected foil’ label distinguishes it from the ‘error’ version.
