The card presents as mint inside the holder with sharp corners and clean edges consistent with a PSA 9 grade; the slab is intact and included with the sale.

Card Details & Notable Features This is the Japanese Umbreon Gold Star from the Pokémon 25th Anniversary set, card number 012/025. It features the special gold‑star treatment and the 25th Anniversary foil emblem at the lower right of the art box. Artwork is credited to Masakazu Fukuda. The face displays the distinctive, heavily patterned holo/gold‑star mirror effect used for these anniversary releases.

Collectibility & Playability This release is primarily a collector’s piece: the Gold Star styling and the 25th Anniversary branding make this a sought‑after variant for collectors of special‑treatment Pokémon cards and Gold Star fans. While the card can be used in casual play, its value and desirability come from the anniversary foil treatment, Japanese printing, and the PSA 9 grade rather than competitive playability.

Additional Observations Card number (012/025) and Japanese text confirm this is the localized Japanese printing from the 2021 anniversary line. The slab shows the PSA hologram and barcode; that certification number is visible for buyer verification. The combination of gold‑star artwork, Masakazu Fukuda attribution, and the 25th Anniversary stamp gives this card strong appeal to both thematic Umbreon collectors and anniversary/Gold Star sets collectors.
