Together, the Base Set and Jungle expansions form the cornerstone of the Pokémon Trading Card Game’s earliest era. The Base Set’s 102 cards introduced the world to iconic holographics like Charizard, Blastoise, and Venusaur, while Jungle’s 64 cards expanded the roster with beloved evolutions such as Flareon, Jolteon, and Vaporeon.
Completing both master sets means more than filling a binder—it represents preserving the very foundation of the hobby, a snapshot of Pokémon’s rise from a new card game to a global phenomenon. For collectors, these sets are not just checklists but historical artefacts, each card a piece of nostalgia and a testament to the enduring legacy of the Pokémon TCG.
