The Pokemon phenomenon first emerged in Japan in 1996 before becoming a global sensation spanning trading cards, collectable toys, multiple television series and a video game franchise which has sold over 279 million copies

Shopping platform ZenPlus, a subsidiary of shopping service ZenMarket (now part of ZenGroup), sold two of the cards in 2020, for the Japanese Yen equivalent of US$233,000 and US$208,496 respectively
