Unleash the nostalgia of the very beginning of the Pokémon Trading Card Game with this authentic Dratini (26/102) from the iconic Base Set Shadowless edition. As one of the earliest printings of the TCG, the Shadowless set is instantly recognizable by the absence of the black border shadow that was added to later versions, making it a highly sought-after piece for collectors and longtime fans. This raw (ungraded) card features the beloved Dragon-type Pokémon in its earliest Basic form, illustrated by the legendary Ken Sugimori. With its classic artwork, simple yet powerful design, and place in Pokémon history, this Dratini card captures the magic of a bygone era when Pokémon fever first swept the world.

Its Uncommon rarity makes it a key part of completing a full Base Set collection, especially in Shadowless form, which is rarer than the later Shadowed prints. Whether you're building a vintage deck for casual play or expanding your curated Pokémon memorabilia, this card is a timeless addition.

As a raw card, this Dratini offers a genuine piece of Pokémon history in its original state, allowing collectors to appreciate its condition and authenticity firsthand.
