Provenance

Where it came from

Released in September 2002, the Expedition Base Set marked a significant shift for the Pokémon Trading Card Game in Western markets. This set introduced the e-Reader technology, which allowed players to scan cards using a peripheral on the Game Boy Advance to unlock mini-games and Pokédex entries. As a common card in this expansive 165-card set, the Koffing (114/165) features the distinct, modern layout designed to accommodate the dot-code strips required for this digital interaction.

The artwork for this card was created by artist Kagemaru Himeno, a long-standing contributor to the Pokémon franchise known for her expressive character designs. In this depiction, Koffing is portrayed in its classic, gaseous state, maintaining the established biological aesthetic of the Pokémon. While the card served as a staple for deck-building and collection completion during the early e-Card era, it remains appreciated today by collectors for its role in bridging the gap between traditional paper cards and early 2000s handheld gaming.
