Nidoking (Japanese) Holo — Raw / Ungraded Pokémon TCG

Condition & grading Raw, ungraded Japanese Nidoking holographic card. Sold as-is. Card is not slabbed or PSA/CGC graded. Visible surface wear and light edge/corner handling are present in the photos — this listing is for a collectible in raw condition rather than a mint, graded example.

Notable features This is a Japanese-language holographic Nidoking with the classic holo background visible behind the artwork. The holo pattern shows a strong, colorful sparkle effect across the image area and playfield. Japanese text and classic layout make this appealing for collectors of Japanese or vintage Pokémon cards.

Appearance & observations The card displays light surface scuffs and what appears to be minor corner/edge wear (visible along the top edge in the supplied images). Centering appears slightly off (visible margin differences), and there may be small handling marks near the lower border. The holo layer itself remains reflective and still shows the starburst/speckled holo effect clearly.

Collectible value & playability As a raw, ungraded Japanese holo, this card is most valuable to collectors seeking Japanese-language artwork, holo pattern variants, or additions to a vintage-era set display. In tournament play, language does not affect legality for some formats — however this is primarily of interest to collectors rather than competitive players because of its raw condition. Grading would likely increase market value if corners, edges, surface, and centering check out under inspection.

Additional notes No set code or card number is provided with this listing; buyers who need a specific set identification or high-resolution close-ups of corners, back, or card edges should review the supplied photos carefully. The card is sold loose (not in a sealed pack) and will be shipped in a protective sleeve and top-loader to preserve condition in transit.
