{"product_id":"lapras-10-fossil-10-62-foil","title":"Lapras (10) - Fossil #10\/62 - Foil","description":"\u003ch3 style=\"font-size:1.25em;font-weight:700;margin-top:1em;margin-bottom:0.5em;\"\u003eItem Condition\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is a foil single card from the Fossil set. The holo surface and card edges show some light wear consistent with age and handling, as is typical of cards from this era of the Pokemon TCG. Corners may show minor softening, and the holo finish may display some scratching or scuffing under direct light. Please refer to the provided photos for the exact details of the item's condition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"font-size:1.25em;font-weight:700;margin-top:1em;margin-bottom:0.5em;\"\u003eItem Description\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLapras has always occupied a special place in the hearts of Pokemon fans — a gentle giant of the sea, equal parts majestic and melancholy. In the original games, finding the lone Lapras waiting in Silph Co. felt like a gift, and that same sense of quiet wonder carries over into its card art here. The Fossil set's Lapras card captures the creature mid-glide through open water, rendered with the warm, painterly style that defined early Pokemon TCG illustration. It's a beautiful card to hold, and one that rewards a close look.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Fossil expansion arrived in 1999 as the third set released for the Pokemon Trading Card Game in the English market, following Base Set and Jungle. Where Jungle leaned into fan-favorite creatures, Fossil introduced some of the TCG's most iconic and sought-after cards alongside a roster of Pokemon drawn from the depths — Gengar, Aerodactyl, Muk, and of course Lapras. The set cemented the early TCG's identity as something that rewarded both competitive play and passionate collecting in equal measure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn the card itself, Lapras sits at 80 HP, which was genuinely impressive for the era. Its Water Gun attack offers straightforward, scalable damage that made it a reliable presence in Water-type builds, and its Psychic resistance added a layer of utility that casual players and early tournament regulars both appreciated. It's not the flashiest attacker in the set, but it's a steady, dependable card with real playability roots.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs a holo rare numbered 10 out of 62, Lapras holds a firm spot in the Fossil set's upper tier. For anyone working through a complete Fossil holo checklist, this card is a meaningful piece of the puzzle. The Fossil holos are notorious for showing wear — the printing and lamination of cards from this period simply weren't built for decades of handling — so finding a copy in honest, presentable condition takes real effort.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhether you're a longtime collector chasing a complete Fossil set, a fan of Lapras specifically who wants the card on display, or a player looking to build an authentic vintage Water deck, this card delivers. It's a genuine piece of early Pokemon TCG history.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Coolection","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56689800118438,"sku":"PKQ-44419-FL","price":21.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0651\/7404\/4838\/files\/58hrWN_A_eFn4uSGBgxv5EdnVHTJZqI1_TTsLFmrHho.jpg?v=1782191708","url":"https:\/\/coolection.com\/products\/lapras-10-fossil-10-62-foil","provider":"Coolection","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
