Lore

Why it matters

Nidoran ♂ from the Steam Siege expansion is notable for its shift to the Psychic type, a departure from the Poison-type classification it typically holds in the trading card game. While this card is a common rarity, it remains a favorite for collectors who enjoy documenting the unconventional type variations that appear across different expansion sets.

Provenance

Where it came from

Nidoran ♂ (43/114) was released as part of the Pokémon Trading Card Game expansion Steam Siege, which debuted in English in August 2016. This set drew its primary inspiration from the Japanese expansion XY BREAK Steam Siege. The set's overarching theme centered on the clash between dual-type Pokémon and the powerful mechanical innovations of the era, reflecting a shift in gameplay mechanics that allowed for more complex deck strategies.

The card features artwork by illustrator Kouki Saitou, a long-time contributor to the Pokémon franchise known for his clear, character-focused style. In this entry, the Nidoran is depicted in a straightforward manner consistent with its Common status, intended to serve as a foundational card for collectors and players alike. As a Psychic-type variant, it highlights the stylistic variety of the set, where traditional type assignments were often rearranged to balance the mechanics of the game's evolving card roster.
