Pokémon Trading Cards series 1 was Topps's first Pokémon release, issued in 1999 and built around the original Generation I run of Pokémon the Series. The 90-card set covers the first 76 Kanto Pokémon, thirteen animated-series character cards, and a checklist card.
Topps also issued silver-foil and rainbow-foil parallels of all 90 cards, plus separate promotional and chase subsets — those are not part of this numbered checklist. Card photos are added from contributor scans as the set is verified. Each entry has separate front and back photo slots so collectors can document both sides.
