The original Pikachu. So pro.

The art always looked cheesy, but it was still a good card. Better than the Jungle one…

Original Pikachu deserves a 10 :o

May his glorious yellow cheeks crackle untarnished by smudge, tear, or crease for eternity.

The prototype Pikachu card had the first move different, the second move had a buff, it had 50 HP and artwork and background similar to WBSP 1, except drawn by Ken Sugimori.
The first move was Thunder Wave and cost 1 Thunder energy.
The second move did 40+ damage, but since it has the same description, the + didn’t do anything.
