# Joltik (Japanese) #005 — Battle Gift Set: Thundurus vs Tornadus

## Summary

Japanese collectors had this Joltik in November 2011, about six months before the English Dark Explorers set, which carries the same card, arrived in May 2012. It comes from the Battle Gift Set: Thundurus vs Tornadus, a boxed product rather than a booster set. The yellow Electric-type crouches in front of a rocky brown canyon, little sparks scattered around its blue eye, and as a basic common it is an easy, charming pickup. The sold median sits at $16 with 1 copy traded in 30 days, with 30 days of inventory on the board; no PSA population is on file.
