2002 Pokemon Legendary Collection #78 Grimer - Rev. Foil (Reverse Holo) Pokemon Trading Card. Showcasing the spectacular and unmistakable foil treatment that has made Legendary Collection reverse holos some of the most exciting collectibles of the vintage Pokemon era. Released during the final years of Wizards of the Coast's historic tenure with the Pokemon Trading Card Game, Legendary Collection brought back memorable Pokemon and artwork from the hobby's earliest expansions while introducing its now iconic reverse holographic design, covering nearly the entire card in an explosive fireworks like pattern of brilliant shimmering color. Grimer #78 features the sludge dwelling Generation I Poison type Pokemon and predecessor to Muk, transforming this quirky original 151 character into an incredibly vibrant showcase piece. The contrast between Grimer's classic artwork and the dazzling Legendary Collection foil gives the card an especially fun and distinctive appearance, perfectly demonstrating how the set's legendary reverse holo treatment could turn even the most unconventional Pokemon into an eye catching collectible. Legendary Collection reverse holos have developed a passionate following for their bold presentation, vintage Wizards of the Coast origins, nostalgic character lineup, and instantly recognizable foil pattern unlike anything else from the early Pokemon TCG. Combining an original Generation I Pokemon with one of the most memorable and visually explosive holographic treatments in Pokemon history, this Grimer represents a fantastic addition to any Legendary Collection, original 151, or vintage Pokemon collection.
