Where it came from
Released in 2002 as part of the Neo Destiny expansion, this card represents the final set of the Neo era, which introduced the concept of Shining Pokémon and focused heavily on the lore of the Johto region. Mantine, a dual-type Water and Flying Pokémon, was rendered in the distinct, expressive art style that characterized early-generation trading cards, reflecting the game's shift toward more experimental compositions following the success of the base set.
The artwork for this card was illustrated by Atsuko Nishida, one of the most significant designers in the franchise's history. Known for creating the character design for Pikachu, Nishida brought a soft, watercolor-influenced aesthetic to many cards of this era. This piece captures Mantine in a serene underwater setting, emphasizing the creature's elegant, ray-like anatomy and its tranquil nature, which was a hallmark of the set's effort to ground the Pokémon in realistic, naturalistic environments.
