Where it came from
The Legendary Collection, released in 2002, was designed as a retrospective set for the Pokémon Trading Card Game, gathering popular cards from the first three base sets to provide newer players with access to classic staples. The Ivysaur card, numbered 47/110, features the original artwork by Atsuko Nishida, who was instrumental in the early aesthetic of the franchise. By reprinting these specific illustrations, the set maintained the visual language that defined the late nineties trading card phenomenon.
This particular iteration of the card is distinguished by the unique 'reversely holographic' foil pattern that defines the Legendary Collection. While the card itself remains an uncommon rarity, the holographic treatment was a departure from the original Base Set printing, aimed at creating a cohesive, shimmering aesthetic across the entire set. It was well-received by collectors who appreciated the nod to earlier designs, serving as a bridge between the initial growth of the game and the evolution of card aesthetics in the early 2000s.
