Pokémon Base Set — the 102-card checklist

The 1999 Base Set is a closed list of 102 cards, and this is all of it in binder order. Rarity, HP, type and illustrator come from the pokemontcg.io checklist fetched on 2026-09-01. Prices do not: exactly one card on this list has verified sold lots behind it.

What this set is

Base Set ran in three printings — 1st Edition, Shadowless and Unlimited — and a card from each is a different object in the market even at the same grade. The set holds 16 Rare Holo cards, 16 Rare, 32 Uncommon and 32 Common, with 6 cards whose rarity the fetched checklist does not record. 16 cards carry a holofoil panel. Four illustrators are credited across the set; their card counts are listed here.

Every row below links to that card’s page. A page marked Catalogued carries the card’s fetched identity and an explicit statement that no verified sold price exists for it yet — not an estimate, and not a zero.
