About the Pokémon
Kangaskhan is the Parent Pokémon, recorded as No. 115 in the National Pokédex. It was introduced in Generation I, associated with the Kanto generation of games. Its protective pouch shelters its young as they develop. It has no earlier species in its standard evolution line.
About the Expansion
Pokémon Jungle arrived in Japan on 5 March 1997 as the second main expansion. Its 48-card checklist expanded the original Kanto selection with Pokémon including Eevee's evolutions and Snorlax. These Japanese cards retain the original Pocket Monsters back and predate the differently structured English Jungle release of 1999.
Artwork & Collector's Notes
Mitsuhiro Arita is credited for this Pokémon Jungle illustration of Kangaskhan. The holofoil finish, original Pocket Monsters reverse and Japanese text identify this printing. The No. 115 identifier is a Pokédex number, not an English set checklist position.
