Lore

Why it matters

Released in the 2015 BREAKthrough expansion, this Glalie-EX card highlights the shift toward high-HP Pokémon-EX cards that defined the mid-XY era of the trading card game. Collectors prize it as a quintessential example of the "Rare Holo EX" design, which featured distinct metallic foiling and bold artwork to distinguish these powerful, high-stakes cards from standard releases.

Provenance

Where it came from

Glalie-EX was released as part of the Pokémon Trading Card Game expansion titled BREAKthrough, which debuted in November 2015. As an Ultra-Rare 'EX' card, it represents the game's focus during the XY series on powerful, high-HP Pokémon that granted the opponent two prize cards upon being knocked out. This card specifically features the Mega-Evolvable base form of the icy Glalie, a design choice meant to provide synergy for players looking to transition into its Mega Glalie-EX counterpart.

The artwork for this card was commissioned from Eske Yoshinob, a prolific illustrator known for a sharp, digitally-rendered aesthetic that emphasizes the crystalline textures of the Pokémon. The design captures the intimidating, jagged features of Glalie with a polished holographic finish common to the Rare Holo EX tier. Upon its release, the card was evaluated primarily for its competitive utility and its role as a core piece for water-type decks in the 2015-2016 tournament rotation.
