Why this card matters
pop
No reprint pressure since 1998, but 'vending series' distribution was wide; true scarcity is grading-population driven, not print-run driven.
demand
Charmander cohort pull is strong and evergreen, but comp spread ($720-$2683 across CGC/TAG/PSA 10) shows inconsistent grading-market demand.
artist
Standard 1998 vending sheet illustration, thin blue-line holo finish—historic but not a standout aesthetic chase piece.
catalyst
30d momentum flat at 0%; no active catalyst, just steady legacy demand for a 28.5y old promo.
