Pidgeot Holo #23 PSA 8 – Expedition Base Set

For collectors passionate about the Pokémon TCG’s vintage era, Pidgeot Holo #23/165 PSA 8 from Expedition Base Set is a standout card. This single, professionally graded card represents both the beginning of the e-Card series and the end of the Wizards of the Coast era, making it a sought-after piece among dedicated collectors of graded cards and Pokémon enthusiasts.

About Pidgeot Holo #23 from Expedition Base Set

Expedition Base Set, released in 2002, marks the introduction of e-Reader–compatible cards to the Pokémon TCG. Pidgeot #23/165 is a holofoil rare and should not be confused with the reverse-holo version (#59/165) from the same set. The holofoil finish highlights Tomokazu Komiya's distinctive artwork, presenting Pidgeot in a vivid and dynamic pose typical of the e-Card series' visual style.

PSA 8 grading and collector status

The card is graded PSA 8, which corresponds to Near Mint–Mint on PSA's scale. Such a grade indicates the card shows minimal wear and only minor, almost invisible flaws. PSA 8 is an attractive grade for collectors seeking vintage holofoil cards in excellent condition, but who are not necessarily chasing the absolute top grades. Note that neither the language nor the PSA certification number has been verified in the available data – please contact us for further documentation if desired.
