# Starmie (Japanese) #045 — Split Earth

## Summary

Starmie floats against a dark, glittering backdrop on its Japanese e-Card holo, the purple gem at its core glowing red amid scattered rock shapes and a sparkling foil finish. The card belongs to the Split Earth set, released in Japan in August 2002, when Starmie was still a favourite Water-Psychic from Kanto. As a holo rare it sat in the set's mid-tier, a desirable pull without being a chase slot.
