GOLBAT CARDS GUIDE (JP VER.?How do you tell Golbat cards apart?Check the number and rarity letters in the bottom corner (e.g. 042/165 on the 151 Golbat). Cards from 1997 to early 2001 have no number — use the set symbol and rarity mark.)
FIRST GOLBAT · JUN 21, 1997?Golbat wasn’t in the 1996 Base Set. Its first card came in Mystery of the Fossils, released June 21, 1997 — over two years before the English Fossil set.

JAPANESE GOLBAT CARD CHECKLIST

[8 CARDS] 1997 FOSSIL TO 2025

Golbat skipped the 1996 Base Set — its first card came in Mystery of the Fossils in June 1997, and five months later came the holo Dark Golbat in Rocket Gang. Since then it has had a glossy vending card, Brock’s and Koga’s Gym cards, a 2004 Dark Golbat, a Pokémon Card 151 uncommon and a Team Rocket’s Golbat. These 8 are the ones worth finding. The 3 marked ★ are the ones to look for first: the 1997 Mystery of the Fossils original, the 1997 Dark Golbat holo and the 151 Master Ball mirror 042/165.
