Devolution Spray (072/102) from the Pokémon Base Set Unlimited is a must-have for collectors and players alike, offering both nostalgic charm and strategic utility. As a Rare Trainer card, it stands out in the foundational Base Set that launched the Pokémon Trading Card Game into global popularity. This raw, ungraded card from the Unlimited edition features the original artwork by Keiji Kinebuchi, showcasing the iconic Devolution Spray with a clean, classic design that captures the early aesthetic of the TCG. Whether you're completing your Base Set collection or enhancing your retro-themed deck, this card brings a piece of Pokémon history straight to your hands.

In gameplay, Devolution Spray offers a unique tactical advantage by allowing you to reset an evolved Pokémon. By choosing one of your own Pokémon in play and a specific Stage of Evolution, you can discard all Evolution cards of that stage or higher attached to it. This not only simplifies your board state but also clears away debilitating conditions like Asleep, Confused, Paralyzed, or Poisoned—effectively giving your Pokémon a fresh start, just as if it had evolved anew. This makes Devolution Spray a clever tool for disrupting your opponent’s strategy or salvaging a key Pokémon that’s been locked down by status effects.

Perfect for fans of vintage Pokémon cards, this Unlimited print is more accessible than the highly sought-after 1st Edition versions, yet still holds significant appeal due to its historical importance and utility in casual and format-limited play. Its inclusion in early sets makes it a conversation starter and a centerpiece for displays or retro gameplay sessions. Whether you're a seasoned collector or a new enthusiast diving into the roots of the TCG, the Devolution Spray (072/102) is a timeless addition that bridges gameplay and nostalgia
