Provenance

Where it came from

Released in February 2000, Base Set 2 served as a strategic compilation for the Pokémon Trading Card Game, designed to reintroduce cards from the original Base Set and the Jungle expansion to a growing audience. The set was created to ensure that popular cards remained accessible as the game's popularity surged internationally, acting as a bridge for players who had missed the initial print runs.

The Goldeen card, numbered 76/130, features artwork by artist Kagemaru Himeno, a prominent illustrator in the Pokémon franchise. Himeno’s design captures the elegant, fish-like nature of the creature, maintaining the established visual style of the early TCG. As a common card, it was widely distributed, serving as a functional, low-level water type for players, and is regarded today as a nostalgic representative of the game's early developmental era.
