Provenance

Where it came from

Released in September 2003 as part of the EX Sandstorm expansion, this card marked the debut of the Steel type in the Pokémon Trading Card Game. The expansion was designed to introduce the Ruby and Sapphire generation of Pokémon to players, incorporating mechanics such as Pokémon-ex to freshen the competitive landscape.

The artwork for this card was provided by Ken Sugimori, whose minimalist, iconic style defined the visual identity of the franchise's early years. As a rare holo card, it features a distinctive holographic foil pattern that was standard for high-rarity cards during the Wizards of the Coast and early The Pokémon Company International transition period, reflecting the era's focus on textured, reflective aesthetics.
