Bulbasaur 166/165

This is Bulbasaur (166/165) from the 151 set, the Scarlet and Violet era expansion that revisits the original Kanto Pokedex from Bulbasaur through to Mew. It is presented as an Illustration Rare, one of the most loved rarity tiers in modern Pokemon, giving the card a full scene artwork that extends across the frame.

The card number 166/165 sits above the set total of 165, which confirms this as a secret rare drawn from the numbering beyond the main checklist. Secret rares are printed in addition to the base set, so they are scarcer and especially prized by collectors completing a 151 run.

As the very first Pokemon in the National Pokedex, Bulbasaur holds a special place for long time fans, and the 151 set leans into that original Kanto nostalgia. This Illustration Rare is a fitting pick for anyone chasing the 151 secret rares or building a Bulbasaur collection.
