In the 1999 French Base Set of the Pokémon TCG, “Recherche Informatique” is a rare 1st Edition Trainer card (71/102). Illustrated by Keiji Kinebuchi, the art shows a retro computer and a Poké Ball accessory on a striped green backdrop, capturing the tech-savvy theme of early Pokémon cards. Its powerful effect – discard two cards to search your deck for any card – mirrors the famous “Computer Search” mechanic, making it a standout vintage strategy card. Collectors prize this nostalgic Pokémon trading card for its classic artwork and genuine first-edition stamp, as an iconic piece from the original French set.
