Friends! What you see might be the EARLIEST officially released Pokémon illustration ever.
It’s a Game Freak 1993 New Year postcard by Ken Sugimori found and scanned by the awesome collector http://instagram.com/hapycakeoven A truly exciting discovery. This does not pre-date Capsule Monsters, this card might represent the first time Game Freak showed Pokémon to the public. It surely is the earliest published picture to date. As you might know, these cards are usually in colour, so let the hunt for the original begin!
The only cards of slight value I got were Ugin, Kaya, and Domri, all others were fairly pointless. Went 2-2 though, so that’s good. Now to save to get a Bolas for my Grixis commander deck.
This was a pretty kickass beatdown deck! Went 2-0 then split the last match because I had to be somewhere else. Double Phoenix of Ash was killer. . . . . . #mtg #mtgthb #therosbeyonddeath #prerelease #cardgaming #tabletopgaming https://www.instagram.com/p/B7f9aAwHoLC/?igshid=14bbio5li2zmc
