In particular, Master Ball Mirror versions of fan-favorite first-generation Pok\u00e9mon are among the set&#8217;s most sought-after pulls\u2014such as this Bulbasaur card.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There&#8217;s not a whole lot that really needs to be explained here. As one of the original Pok\u00e9mon starters from Gen 1, Bulbasaur has always been one of the most popular Pok\u00e9mon. Its status as the Pok\u00e9mon with the first entry in the Pok\u00e9dex adds to its appeal\u2014for certain collectors, having that &#8220;001&#8221; card of such a nostalgic and valuable set really is a big deal. This is the case with the Bulbasaur Master Ball Mirror card because card numbers in Pok\u00e9mon Card 151 [SV2a] are arranged by Pok\u00e9dex number.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As has been mentioned, Master Ball Mirror iterations of cards from Pok\u00e9mon Card 151 [SV2a] are major gets; having that print alone drives the demand for even a relatively common card all the way up. The exclusivity of Master Ball Mirror cards also needs to be mentioned; they are only available in the Japanese version of Pok\u00e9mon Card 151 [SV2a].<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There is no English version of this card as Master Ball Mirror versions only exist in Japanese.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The price of a Bulbasaur Master Ball Mirror (Pok\u00e9mon Card 151 [SV2a] 001\/165) card is 8,900 JPY (~US$57).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In other TCG-related news, check out the <a href=\"https:\/\/snkrdunk.com\/en\/magazine\/2024\/05\/28\/yu-gi-oh-tcg-trickstar-noble-angel-is-full-of-references-to-skye-zaizen-duelist-pack-duelists-of-brilliance-dp29-jp040\/?slide=right\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Trickstar Noble Angel card from Duelist Pack: Duelists of Brilliance<\/a>.
