Venusaur (フシギバナ) No.005 — Japanese Pokémon Card — Raw, Ungraded

Language: Japanese. Card shown is Venusaur (フシギバナ), No.005, HP100 — the classic Solar Beam 60 attack and grass-energy cost are visible. Listed as raw and ungraded.

Condition and grading:

• Raw / ungraded card. Sold as-is without professional grading. Card is sleeved in a soft plastic sleeve (photo taken through sleeve) — surface shows light sleeve scuffs and reflections in the pictures. Edges and corners show visible wear and light whitening; centering appears slightly off-center toward the left. No major creases or bends obvious in photos, but full close-up inspection is recommended before grading.

Notable features:

• Japanese-language print with the card number (No.005) visible in the lower right — this is the classic Venusaur artwork/layout from early Japanese sets. The card is non-holo (no foil on the art or name panel visible in the images).
• Artwork is the original-style Venusaur illustration framed by a yellow border. The card retains clear text for the HP, ability/attack names, and Pokédex entry in Japanese.

Artist / set / foil status:

• Artist name is not legible in the supplied photos; card appears to be from an early Japanese set/intro pack and is non-holo (regular print). If you need the exact set or artist credit, I can supply higher-resolution photos of the bottom-left/bottom-right corners where that information is typically printed.

Collectible value and playability:

• This is primarily a vintage/collector piece rather than a current tournament play card due to language and set vintage. It will be of interest to collectors of early Japanese Pokémon cards, Venusaur fans, and those seeking raw candidates for professional grading. Condition issues (edge wear, possible surface scuffs from sleeve) will affect grading outcome, so prices should reflect an ungraded, raw condition.

Additional observations:

• Card is pictured in a soft sleeve (not a hard top-loader or graded case). The sleeve introduces glare and small surface marks in photos; these are not necessarily on the card itself. The Japanese text and No.005 identifier are clear, which helps confirm this as an early Venusaur print.

If exact set identification or artist credit is required, more detailed close-up photos of the copyright line and bottom corners will allow precise verification.
