Provenance

Where it came from

The Blastoise card from the Crystal Guardians expansion was released in 2006 as part of the Pokémon Trading Card Game's EX series. This set was unique for its inclusion of 'Crystal' Pokémon and 'delta species' cards, which featured popular characters with shifted elemental types and holographic patterns, reflecting the transition of the game's mechanics during the mid-2000s.

The card features artwork by illustrator Atsuko Nishida, a pivotal designer in the Pokémon franchise known for her foundational work on Pikachu. In this instance, Nishida captures Blastoise in a dynamic, aggressive stance, utilizing the set's signature aesthetic to highlight the character's status as a powerful Water-type staple within the game's competitive landscape at the time.
