About Porygon: The first-ever artificially created Pokémon, Porygon is a being made of pure programming code. This Normal-type Pokémon can travel freely through cyberspace, making it one of the most unique and technologically advanced creatures from the original 151. This card captures the classic, polygonal look of the Virtual Pokémon as seen in Generation 1.

Understanding the CGC 7.5 Near Mint+ Grade: A CGC 7.5 NM+ (Near Mint Plus) grade signifies a card in excellent condition, especially impressive for a collectible from the late 90s. According to CGC's standards, a 7.5 grade indicates a well-preserved card with strong eye appeal that may have a touch of wear on a few corners or slightly rough edges, but is free from major flaws. Professional grading by CGC guarantees the card's authenticity and provides a reliable, standardized assessment of its condition, all secured within a protective, tamper-evident slab.
