Notorious Misty's Tears Trainer card illustrated by Ken Sugimori — one of the most controversial chase items from the 1998 Japanese Leaders' Stadium expansion (released October 24, 1998).
This exclusive Japanese version features the original artwork of Misty tearfully cradling an injured Staryu while bathing, deemed too suggestive for international audiences and completely redrawn for the English Gym Challenge set — cementing its status as a "banned" collectible among TCG enthusiasts.
As a powerful Trainer card, it lets you discard 1 card from your hand to search your deck for up to 2 Water Energy cards, show them to your opponent, and add them to your hand before shuffling — a key support for early Water-type strategies.
Professionally graded PSA 6 EX-MT: strong centering, corners, edges, and surface considering its vintage. Fully authenticated and encased for life by PSA.

PSA 6
A PSA 6 card may have visible surface wear or a printing defect which does not detract from its overall appeal. A very light scratch may be detected only upon close inspection. Corners may have slightly graduated fraying. Picture focus may be slightly out-of-register. Card may show some loss of original gloss, may have minor wax stain on reverse, may exhibit very slight notching on edges and may also show some off-whiteness on borders. Centering must be 80/20 or better on the front and 90/10 or better on the reverse.
