Lore

Why it matters

Nincada made its Pokémon Trading Card Game debut in the 2003 EX Dragon expansion, representing the early inclusion of Generation III species. As a Grass-type common, it is valued by collectors for its role in showcasing the unique evolution mechanic of the Nincada line, which allows players to evolve into two distinct Pokémon simultaneously.

Provenance

Where it came from

Nincada 67/97 was released in the Dragon expansion of the Pokémon Trading Card Game in 2003. This set was notable for being the first English-language expansion to introduce the dragon-type Pokémon category, although this specific card remained a grass-type to reflect the character's biological attributes. It served as a functional common card, designed to fill out the competitive pool while introducing players to the mechanics of the Hoenn region's roster.

The card art was illustrated by Hironobu Yoshida, who brought a minimalist and focused aesthetic to the character. Yoshida's work during this era often emphasized the creature's simple anatomy, keeping the design clean and accessible for younger players. Upon its release, the card was widely received as a standard utility piece, favored by collectors for its role in evolving into Ninjask or Shedinja, rather than for its individual rarity or competitive dominance.
