Pokémon TCG: Machamp Holo [1st Edition] #8 PSA 1 - Base Set

Machamp Holo 1st Edition #8/102 PSA 1 – Base Set

For collectors seeking an authentic piece of Pokémon history, Machamp Holo 1st Edition #8/102 from the Base Set is an iconic choice. This is a single, graded Pokémon card, encapsulated and rated PSA 1, which means it is officially authenticated but in very low collector condition. The card is part of the original Base Set, released by Wizards of the Coast, and illustrated by Ken Sugimori – one of the most recognized artists in Pokémon TCG.

About Machamp Holo 1st Edition from the Base Set

Machamp #8/102 is a holo rare from the first Pokémon Base Set. The card is distinguished by its holographic finish and the clear 1st Edition marking, which makes it particularly sought after by collectors. Machamp is a Stage 2 Fighting-type Pokémon with 100 HP, and the card features Ken Sugimori’s classic illustration. Base Set cards mark the beginning of Pokémon TCG in the West, and Machamp holds a special place as one of the most recognizable cards from this era.

PSA grading and collector condition

This example is graded PSA 1, which is the lowest official grade from PSA. A PSA 1 grade indicates significant wear, but the card is still encapsulated and verified as authentic by PSA. For collectors, this means you receive an original Base Set card with documented authenticity, even though the condition is very low. The PSA encapsulation protects the card and ensures it remains in the condition it was submitted in.

• Genuine 1st Edition holo rare from the original Base Set
• Graded and encapsulated by PSA – an internationally recognized grading company
• Illustrated by Ken Sugimori
• Part of Pokémon TCG’s early history and released by Wizards of the Coast
• Relevant for collectors looking for authenticated Graded cards or Pokémon single cards
