Provenance

Where it came from

Released in January 2003 as part of the Aquapolis expansion, this Ninetales card represents a distinct era in the Pokémon Trading Card Game. Following the end of the Wizards of the Coast partnership, the set was notable for introducing the E-Reader functionality, allowing players to scan cards into a Game Boy Advance for mini-games and data. The set serves as a bridge between the classic late-90s aesthetic and the modern era of the game.

The artwork for this Ninetales, illustrated by Hiromichi Sugiyama, leans into the experimental graphic design common to the E-Reader series. The layout features a split border and specific data strips designed for machine compatibility, which constrained the illustration space. Despite these technical limitations, the design captures the mystical elegance of Ninetales, and the card remains a sought-after piece for collectors who appreciate the unique visual identity of the short-lived E-Card series.
