Description

The listing, Japanese Pokemon Card 081 Magnemite Team Rocket 1996 NEED MORE INFORMATION ON CARD PLEASE HELP has ended.

The card is in great shape with no creases, bends, etc.

I collected Pokemon cards back in 1999 and haven't looked at them since. I am getting ready for a garage sale and plan on selling my collection and saw this card and was unsure about it.

Based on my research, this card is Magnemite and is numbered 081 and is a part of the Team Rocket set. However, this card has a glossy spiral design to the front and is smaller than the normal Pokemon card (see pictures 3 and 4)

I cannot find a card like this one on Google searches and on Pokemon card websites.

This card was purchased in the summer of 1999 at a Flea Market in Elko, Minnesota.

I am a little bit of a fish out of water on Pokemon cards, my expertise is in sports cards.

Please comment with your help on what exactly this card is.

I love Japan and used to like Pokemon and all i can tell you is that Magnemite's real Japanese name is Coil (Koiru) I never seen such a card. I never seen any 1st stage evolution card as a holographic before unless it was a shiny Pokemon like Gold Migikarp. It could just be a flashy Japanse boot leg since it's a sticker.

Yeah, there are a lot of questions about it. It's really strange since I purchased it in a group of 5 or so Pokemon cards at a small town Minnesota flea market 15 years ago. Hopefully, someone has some use for it. Thanks for your insight.
