What are the rarest Japanese Pokémon cards?

PokeMasterJin
Oh, diving into the world of rare Japanese Pokémon cards, are we? Strap in because it's a wild ride. At the top of the rarity mountain, you've got the Pikachu Illustrator card. This card is basically the crown jewel of Pokémon card collecting, with so few in existence and auctions going crazy for it. Then there's the Master's Key, a card given to competitors in the 2010 Pokémon World Championships in Japan. Super rare and super cool. And don't get me started on the Pokémon Snap cards. These were awarded for a unique Pokémon Snap contest in Japan where players submitted in-game photos, and winners got their shots printed on actual Pokémon cards. Talk about a snapshot in time!

Illustrator Pikachu, end of story. No card commands the same mix of awe and envy.

If you ask me, the holographic Mewtwo from the 1996 Japanese Base Set deserves a spot on the list. It might not fetch the same astronomical prices as the Illustrator Pikachu, but good luck finding one in mint condition!
