Provenance

Where it came from

The Grimer card from the EX Dragon expansion was released in 2003 as part of the broader EX series by the Pokémon Company. This set marked a transition in the card game's design language, introducing new mechanics like Pokémon-ex, and it reflected the artistic shift occurring as the series moved into the Generation III era of the franchise.

The illustration for this particular card was produced by Ken Sugimori, the primary character designer and art director for the Pokémon franchise. In keeping with the aesthetic standards of the time, the art emphasizes a minimalist, clean look that highlights the creature's simple composition. As a common card, it served as a foundational element for deck building within the Dragon set, which is remembered for its thematic focus on the Hoenn region's roster of species.
