Meowth

Description

Released in 2002 as part of the Expedition Base Set, this Meowth card (number 121) represents a foundational piece of the Pokémon Trading Card Game's early history. Designed by artist Hironobu Yoshida, the card features Meowth as a Basic Colorless Pokémon with 50 HP, serving as a versatile starter for early deck constructions. The reverse holo treatment adds a distinctive shimmer to the card's surface, making it a preferred choice for collectors building out the Expedition expansion. Meowth’s attacks, Colorless Double Scratch and Pay Day, offer strategic flexibility, allowing players to deal variable damage or draw cards based on coin flips. This mechanical simplicity reflects the design philosophy of the era, where accessibility and gameplay clarity were paramount. For investors and hobbyists alike, the Expedition Base Set remains a highly regarded era in Pokémon TCG history, and individual cards like this Meowth release continue to hold significance for those completing their sets. Whether you are tracking down specific finishes or expanding your collection of early 2000s Pokémon cards, this product stands as a key identifier of that nostalgic period.
