The punching power of Hitmonchan comes from its playability in the original 1999 Pokémon Base Set trading card game. A staple in competitive decks the sheer amount of use that this card saw is one of the reasons why top condition copies are so hard to come across today.
As a result, only 59 copies have been deemed worthy by PSA to receive their PSA 10 designation, and has caused Hitmonchan to be one of the hardest to obtain pieces in any 1st Edition Base Set collection.
Featuring artwork by the ever-talented Ken Sugimori, this iteration of Hitmonchan has stopping power far above its weight class.
The certification number on this card has been checked against the third-party grader's online database and is active as of 05/14/2026.
