This Pidgey card comes from the 1998 Pokémon Japanese Vending Series 1 promotional set, a Japan-only vending machine release of the Pokémon TCG. Illustrated by Aya Kusube, the art depicts Pidgey soaring above a sunlit grassy plain under a pastel sky, capturing the charming style of early Pokémon cards. As a Colorless basic Pokémon with 50 HP and simple attacks Gust (10) and Quick Attack (10+20), it reflects the straightforward gameplay of the first-generation cards. Collectors prize this vintage Japanese trading card for its nostalgic appeal and rarity as an original vending-series promo.
