Team Rocket

82 cards · 2000 · Highest FMV $3.4K

Team Rocket hit shelves in 2000 as the third expansion in the Base Series, launching during the WOTC era when Wizards of the Coast controlled print runs and card stock. It's a 82-card set that rode the peak wave of the original TCG boom—when Pokémon was still a novelty in the mainstream. This set sits squarely in the vintage window that defines WOTC collectibility: pre-2003, limited production, and locked into the nostalgia cycle that powers hobby demand. Team Rocket carries the weight of early-2000s scarcity. Cards from this era command attention because print volumes were tight by modern standards and the player base was young—meaning pack-fresh inventory got played, not preserved. It's pure vintage WOTC, which means condition, rarity, and first-edition status move the needle in this market. No reprints, no modern production shifts. What you're buying is a snapshot of when the hobby was still finding its footing.

Bro how do you call Yveltal a Darkrai 😭 That’s like seeing a Charizard and saying “yo nice dragonite.” Yveltal is a giant red death bird that looks like it came straight out of the apocalypse and Darkrai is literally a skinny sleep demon. They don’t even look related bro 💀 The Pokédex just lost Wi-Fi when you said that. Team Rocket would’ve fired you on the spot for that one. But it’s alright, even professors make mistakes… just maybe keep the Pokédex open next time 😂

This was Meowth's greatest episode ever and he deserved this! Mewoth loved Clameow that much he even won Seviper, Infernape, Yanmega, Staraptor and Togekiss too! Love gives a lot of powers, but I don't know how Meowth win all those Pokémon? Team Rocket, Brock and Dawn understand the love, but why Ash just never knew about love, but a lot of girls kissed him!? My love for my girlfriend is the STRONGEST in the world! ❤
