Heat Blast - 70 damage
The Pokmon Trading Card Game was released one month later in October 1996 by the company Media Factory, so the first set of Bandai Carddass cards are widely regarded as the first Pokmon cards ever released
Pokmon-ex cards also soon emerged as predominant fixtures in tournament decks as it was soon found that in the vast majority of instances, the reward of the Pokmon-exs remarkable power far outweighed the risk of surrendering an additional Prize card
You can get some pretty sweet, limited edition skins, though - for example, if you bought the 'Warhammer Bundle' during the October 2023 Warhammer 40k Secret Lair, you got two codes, each good for ten premium card sleeves showing the 40k-ified versions of classic cards: Merciless Executioner as "Ork Kommando" Aggravated Assault Krenko, Tin Street Kingpin as "Makari the Lucky Grot" Zurgo Helmsmasher as "Ghazghkull, Prophet of the Waaagh!" Blind Obedience Danitha Capashen, Paragon as "Neave Blacktalon" Najeela, the Blade-Blossom as "Archaeon the Everchosen" Scourge of the Throne as "Stardrake" Beware, though - this is often the priciest way to find new codes
