Provenance

Where it came from

Released in 2003 as part of the Skyridge expansion, this card represents the final set produced by Wizards of the Coast for the Pokémon Trading Card Game before the license transitioned to The Pokémon Company. The set is noted for its integration with the Nintendo Game Boy Advance e-Reader peripheral, which allowed players to scan dot-code strips on the cards to unlock supplemental data, minigames, and Pokédex entries.

The artwork for this Electrode card was created by artist Kagemaru Himeno, a long-time illustrator for the franchise known for a clean, expressive style. By this stage in the game's evolution, the design focused on a distinct visual shift toward more dynamic, modern compositions that emphasized the character's movement, setting the tone for the aesthetics that would carry over into the EX era.
