I've actually got two answers.
The first is a Japanese Butterfree from the Jungle set. Butterfree's always been my favorite Pokemon, and I was desperate to have a Butterfree card, but the Jungle set hadn't been released internationally, and Butterfree wasn't included in the Base Set. My cousin actually ordered one for me, and to this day I still have it tucked away in a binder with the rest of my early set holo cards.
The other one was the original Gardevoir ex card from the ex Sandstorm set. It was the ace in my deck for the longest time, and was pretty OP for the time (attack damage equalling either the number of cards in the opponent's hand, or the number of energy cards in play). I won many a battle with it, and it was probably the last time I was truly into the TCG outside of collecting.
That Gardevoir is an amazing card.
