Character: Vileplume Set: Jungle Series: Base Set Card Number: 15/64 Rarity: R Condition: N/A Grade: Raw Year: 1999 Illustrator: Keiji Kinebuchi Type: Character  Vileplume (15/64) – Jungle 1st Edition Holofoil is a highly sought-after Pokémon Trading Card Game (TCG) card from the original Jungle expansion, released in 1999. As a Stage 2 Grass-type Pokémon evolving from Gloom, Vileplume stands out with its 80 HP, distinctive Pokédex entry highlighting its large, toxic petals, and unique gameplay abilities. Its signature Pokémon Power, Heal, allows players to remove a damage counter from one of their Pokémon once per turn (on a coin flip), adding strategic depth to deck-building. The card's attack, Petal Dance, deals variable damage based on coin flips but leaves Vileplume confused afterward, reflecting the move’s mechanics in the video games. The 1st Edition Holofoil version of this card is particularly prized among collectors due to its limited print run and historical significance in the early days of the Pokémon TCG. Featuring shimmering holographic artwork by Keiji Kinebuchi, the card captures Vileplume’s vibrant, flower-like appearance in striking detail. It bears the "1st Edition" stamp and the Jungle set symbol, distinguishing it from later Unlimited prints. Originally part of a 64-card set, Vileplume was one of the rare holofoil cards, making it a standout pull from vintage booster packs. While not as widely recognized as Charizard or Blastoise, it holds a dedicated following due to its unique design and nostalgic appeal. Some early Unlimited Holofoil prints were mistakenly released without the Jungle symbol, creating a rare variant that further fuels collector interest. Today, the 1st Edition Holo Vileplume remains a cherished piece for completists and fans of the classic Base and Jungle sets.
