The PSA 9 grade confirms near-mint condition with only minor flaws allowed, such as slight corner wear or a minor print mark. Japanese 1st Edition VS cards remain scarce outside Japan, and high-grade examples appeal to both Pokémon TCG collectors and fans of the Johto-era games.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHighlights\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGrade:\u003c\/strong\u003e PSA 9 (Mint) - exhibits minimal wear, preserving long-term collector value\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e1st Edition Japanese VS Set:\u003c\/strong\u003e exclusive to Japan, released in 2001 as a themed Gym Leader series\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMorty's Noctowl:\u003c\/strong\u003e represents the Ecruteak City Gym Leader's signature Psychic-type Pokémon\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCard #24\/141:\u003c\/strong\u003e common rarity, yet harder to find in high grade due to age and print quality\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/strong\u003e Japanese text and holofoil finish authentic to the original VS release\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCard details\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eYear:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2001\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand \/ set:\u003c\/strong\u003e Pokémon VS Japanese 1st Edition\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePlayer \/ character:\u003c\/strong\u003e Morty's Noctowl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCard number:\u003c\/strong\u003e 24\/141\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGrading company:\u003c\/strong\u003e PSA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGrade:\u003c\/strong\u003e 9\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eQuestions\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs this card in English or Japanese?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eJapanese.
