About this card
An absolutely charming Squirtle Art Rare from one of the most celebrated sets in the modern Pokémon TCG — the 2023 Japanese Scarlet & Violet set SV2a: Pokémon Card 151. Numbered 170/165 — beyond the iconic 165-card set total as befits an Art Rare — this card presents Squirtle in the gorgeous full-bleed illustration style that makes AR cards so sought-after in the modern era. Squirtle is one of the most universally beloved Pokémon in the entire franchise — the original Water-type starter from Kanto and a perennial fan favourite whose cheerful, plucky character has won hearts across every generation of Pokémon fans since 1996. The 151 set, dedicated entirely to the original Kanto Pokémon, was a landmark release that generated enormous excitement worldwide and remains one of the most treasured modern Japanese sets ever produced. Squirtle's AR card from this set is a vibrant and joyful piece that any Kanto collector will be proud to own — and a natural companion to the Bulbasaur, Ivysaur, Charmander and Venusaur ARs from the same set.
