Espeon 196 Neo Premium File 2 Japanese Promo NM Japanese Old Back Pokémon TCG

This Japanese Espeon Promo #196 was released as part of the Neo Premium File 2, a special promotional product highlighting fan-favorite Johto Pokémon outside of standard booster sets.

Illustrated by Naoyo Kimura, the artwork shows Espeon standing alert atop stone ruins at dusk, with its forked tail raised and gem focused forward. The warm sky and shadowed forest backdrop emphasize Espeon’s heightened psychic awareness, reflecting its lore as a Pokémon that predicts danger by reading subtle shifts in the air.

This promo is valued by collectors for its exclusive release, clean Neo-era design, and calm but commanding presentation distinct from main-set Espeon cards.

Shipped in a penny sleeve, top loader, sealed in a team bag, and placed in 6x4x1 box with bubble wrap to ensure a snug fit during transit.
