Provenance

Where it came from

The Manectric card, numbered 9/109, was released in the initial Ruby & Sapphire expansion of the Pokémon Trading Card Game in 2003. This set marked a significant transition in the game's history, introducing Generation III Pokémon and the new e-Reader compatibility, which allowed players to scan cards to unlock specific data or mini-games on a Game Boy Advance.

The card features artwork by illustrator Naoyo Kimura, who chose a dynamic, sharp-edged aesthetic to emphasize the Pokémon's Electric typing and canine-inspired form. As a Rare Holo entry, it served as a primary chase card for players looking to bolster their decks with the newly introduced Manectric line, receiving praise for its sleek design and the foil treatment that highlighted the vibrant, lightning-bolt-themed patterns characteristic of the early EX series.
