⚠ Illus. Error Blastoise
Blastoise
Base Set · Card #2
On unlimited prints, missing black ink removes the "Illus." label from the bottom-left illustrator credit, leaving only the artist's name with no identifying text. Part of the same trio of black-ink defects as the Stage Error and Red Dot. Often overlooked by casual collectors because the card reads normally at a glance — the missing label is only apparent on close inspection.
