Description

This 2000 Japanese Neo Elekid #239 is a fun snapshot of the Gen II era—featuring one of the series’ earliest “baby Pokémon.” Elekid is the pre-evolution of Electabuzz and stands out for its playful, lightning-themed personality and classic early-2000s Pokémon art style.

The artwork on this card is especially charming: a simple, clean scene with bold shapes and bright yellow highlights that pop against the sky. Collectors often appreciate cards like this from the Japanese Neo era because they capture that minimalist, storybook feel before modern full-art styles took over.

Graded PSA 8 (NM-MT), this is a strong-condition example that displays beautifully—perfect for collectors who enjoy Neo-era Japanese cards, Gen II favorites, or building a themed “baby Pokémon” lineup.
