Provenance

Where it came from

The Lileep card was released in 2003 as part of the EX Sandstorm expansion, the second set in the EX series for the Pokémon Trading Card Game. This set introduced the Hoenn region fossil Pokémon to the card game, reflecting the release of the Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire video games on the Game Boy Advance. Lileep, a Grass-type fossil Pokémon, was featured here to emphasize the mechanics of restoring fossils from the game's prehistoric-themed narrative.

The artwork for this card was provided by illustrator Midori Harada, a long-time contributor to the series known for her soft, painterly aesthetic. Her design captures Lileep in an underwater or cavernous environment, consistent with its Rock/Grass type classification and its origins as an ancient organism. As an uncommon card, it served as a functional piece for collectors and players looking to complete the evolutionary chains introduced during the expansion's debut, and it remains a representative example of the art style prevalent during the early EX era.
