In the United States


There were four different printings. These cards all had an oval Nintendo seal. The printings are distinguished by a blue, black, green, or red Topps logo, with card texts being updated between the first (blue) and second (black) printings. Due to an error, all foil cards after the first printing were printed with black logos, but can still be distinguished by the differences in their debossings.


§  1st printing: blue logo on all cards, foil cards had a smooth texture with no debossings They came in silver and Rainbow.


§  2nd printing: black logo on all cards, Pokémon foil cards were debossed with rays and starbursts, while TV cards had a sandpaper finish.


§  3rd printing: green logo on non-foil cards only, Pokémon foil cards were debossed with flames and teardrops, while TV cards had dots and rectangles.


§  4th printing: red logo on non-foil cards only, Pokémon foil cards were debossed with Poké Balls and targets, while TV cards had dents.


A fifth printing featuring foil cards with a smooth finish but a black logo (features of both the 1st and 2nd printings) was also produced to an uncertain extent.
