Bring the nostalgia of the original Pokémon Trading Card Game into your collection with this Koffing (51/102) – Base Set Shadowless card. As one of the early Grass-type Basic Pokémon from the inaugural Base Set released in 1999, this card holds a special place in TCG history. Featuring the iconic artwork of Mitsuhiro Arita, the Shadowless edition is distinguished by the absence of the dark border behind the artwork—a subtle but significant trait that makes it highly sought after by collectors. With its classic design and vintage appeal, this Koffing card is a must-have for fans looking to relive the golden era of Pokémon.

This Koffing card comes in its raw, ungraded state, preserving its original charm and authenticity. It boasts a simple yet effective move, Foul Gas, which can either poison or confuse your opponent’s Pokémon based on a coin flip—adding an element of chance and strategy to gameplay. With 50 HP, a retreat cost of one Colorless energy, and a weakness to Psychic types, it reflects the balanced mechanics of the early TCG format. Whether you're using it to complete your Base Set collection, enhance a retro-themed deck, or simply appreciate its historical significance, this card delivers both playability and collectible value.

As part of the 102-card Base Set, Koffing may be a Common rarity, but its Shadowless version is increasingly hard to find in good condition, making even raw copies a smart addition to any portfolio. The clean layout, vintage font, and classic Pokédex flavor capture the essence of Pokémon’s early days, appealing to long-time trainers and new collectors alike. Whether you're buying your first vintage card or expanding a curated collection, this Koffing (51/102) Shadowless edition is a timeless piece of Pokémon history worth owning.
