Harness the raw power of the earth with this Onix (56/102) – Pokémon Base Set Shadowless trading card, a sought-after piece from the iconic first wave of Pokémon TCG history. As a Fighting-type Basic Pokémon, Onix stands strong with 90 HP, ready to take on challengers with its solid rock body and unyielding defense. This Shadowless edition, released in the original 1999 Base Set, is instantly recognizable by the absence of the shadowed border that defines later Unlimited prints, making it a prized find for collectors and enthusiasts alike. Illustrated by the legendary Ken Sugimori, the artwork captures Onix’s serpentine form coiled with power, emerging from rocky terrain with a fierce, determined gaze.

Onix’s abilities in battle are as sturdy as its appearance. Its Rock Throw attack delivers a solid 10 damage, while its Harden ability provides tactical defense—preventing up to 30 damage during your opponent’s next turn, as long as the incoming damage (after Weakness and Resistance) doesn’t exceed that threshold. This makes Onix not just a collector’s gem, but a nostalgic nod to early gameplay strategies. With a Retreat Cost of 3 and Weakness to Grass-type attacks, this card embodies the balance of strength and vulnerability that defined the Base Set meta.

This is a raw (ungraded) card, offered in its original condition, preserving its authentic feel and history. Whether it's Near Mint, Lightly Played, or shows subtle signs of past adventures, each copy carries its own story. Perfect for collectors building a vintage set, players curating a retro deck, or fans of the Pokémon TCG’s golden era, the Shadowless Onix is a cornerstone of Pokémon card nostalgia. Add this classic Fighting-type fossil to your collection and feel the rumble of TCG history in your hands.
