About Best of Game
What Best of Game is
Best of Game is a nine card collection released through BattleZone tournaments from December 2002 to July 2003, a parting gift from Wizards of the Coast as its license to produce the cards ended. It commemorates some of the best playable Wizards era cards, Electabuzz 1, Hitmonchan 2 and Professor Elm 3, with a special reverse holofoil treatment, and it surprised players with four cards never before printed in English: Rocket's Scizor 4, Rocket's Sneasel 5, Dark Ivysaur 6 and Dark Venusaur 7, previously Japanese promos. Pokémon Professors and Tournament Organizers received Winner versions with a gold foil stamp, Jumbo versions of every card except Professor Elm were made, and Rocket's Mewtwo 8 and Rocket's Hitmonchan 9 exist only as Winner cards because their BattleZone events were cancelled when Wizards lost the license.
What makes Best of Game different
- Rocket's Mewtwo The Jumbo Rocket's Mewtwo 8 is the most valuable card in the set in PSA 10, with the Winner Rocket's Mewtwo 8 second; the card was never issued as a plain participant version.
- Winner stamps The Winner versions of Hitmonchan 2, Electabuzz 1, Dark Venusaur 7, Rocket's Hitmonchan 9, Rocket's Scizor 4 and Dark Ivysaur 6 all rank in the set's top twelve in PSA 10 alongside the plain prints.
Collecting and grading Best of Game
The Jumbo Rocket's Mewtwo 8 leads the set in PSA 10, with the Winner Rocket's Mewtwo 8 second, then the Jumbo Dark Venusaur 7, the Winner Hitmonchan 2 and Electabuzz 1, the plain Electabuzz 1, the Winner Dark Venusaur 7, Rocket's Hitmonchan 9 and Rocket's Scizor 4, the plain Hitmonchan 2 and Dark Venusaur 7 and the Winner Dark Ivysaur 6. The live chase list above ranks every tracked card by PSA 10 value. Winner, plain and Jumbo versions are graded and priced separately, and every card carries a small error in the placement of its attack Energy symbols.
