Pokémon: Minccino Series: Black White Set: Promos Card Number: BW13 Rarity: R Condition: N/A Grade: Raw Year: 2011 Illustrator: Atsuko Nishida The Minccino card, numbered BW13, is a charming Black Star Promo from the Black White series of the Pokémon TCG, released in March 2011. This Basic Colorless-type Pokémon features 50 Hit Points, a Weakness to Fighting, and a Retreat Cost of 1. Distinguished by its unique Cosmos Holo finish (alternatively available as a Cracked Ice Holo), this promo was distributed in Emerging Powers Two Pack Blisters and via a Uniqlo shirt campaign in Japan, making it a nostalgic collectible for fans of the Unova region and Minccin. The card’s gameplay is simple yet functional, featuring two attacks: Gnaw and Tail Smack. Gnaw requires one Colorless Energy and deals a modest 10 damage, serving as an early-game starter. Its primary move, Tail Smack, costs two Colorless Energy and deals 20 damage, providing reliable pressure for a Basic Pokémon. While it lacks an Ability or complex mechanics, its low energy requirements and cheap retreat cost make it a viable filler in Colorless decks or a fun addition to casual Unova-themed collections. Collectors and investors value the BW13 Cosmos Holo for its distinct foil pattern and connection to the Black White era. The Cosmos Holo variant is often preferred over the Cracked Ice version for its vibrant, starry background that complements the card's cheerful artwork by Atsuko Nishida. Whether used as a budget attacker in a Expanded format deck or displayed as a pristine piece of Pokémon history, Minccino BW13 remains a delightful and accessible promo for trainers of all levels.
