Collector’s notes

• Dark Ivysaur 6/9 (Best of Game)

  Dark Ivysaur lunges straight at you in a painterly close-up, its blue body speckled with dark spots, red eyes narrowed and white spiky ruff flaring around its head as the bud blooms red behind it. Art by Shin-ichi Yoshida, the card's soft brushwork sits on the e-Card style frame. As a Best of Game promo, it draws Bulbasaur line fans and collectors chasing the harder-to-find prize cards of that era.

• Ivysaur 5/18 (Southern Islands)

  Ivysaur faces you head-on with a red-eyed scowl, its pink bud and broad leaves filling the top of the frame, in a soft colored-pencil style illustrated by Keiko Fukuyama. Southern Islands cards are designed to line up into larger panoramic scenes, so you can spot Togepi, Pikachu and a fiery neighbor peeking in at the edges. Collectors chase it to complete those connected murals and for its gentle tropical charm.

• Ivysaur 167/165 (151)

  Ivysaur peers down from a mossy bank into a still pond, one vine dipping into the water and sending out rings that ripple through its own reflection. Art by Yoriyuki Ikegami, the scene is painted in loose, layered strokes of greens, blues and soft pinks that fill the whole card. As an Illustration Rare in the nostalgic 151 set, it pairs naturally with its Bulbasaur and Venusaur counterparts.
