Provenance

Where it came from

Nosepass first appeared in the Pokémon Trading Card Game as part of the EX Emerald expansion, which was released in 2005. This set was designed to tie into the popular Pokémon Emerald video game for the Game Boy Advance, featuring a thematic focus on the Hoenn region and the legendary Pokémon Rayquaza. The card, numbered 17/106, represents the rare tier within this specific set, showcasing the character's unique design inspired by Easter Island moai statues.

The artwork for this card was created by Kouki Saitou, a prolific illustrator known for his consistent contribution to the Pokémon TCG aesthetic. Saitou utilized a stylized, bold approach to highlight the character's rocky texture and magnetic nose, reflecting the creature's Rock-type classification. At the time of its release, the card was received as a standard addition to the competitive and collector landscape, valued primarily for its specific role in Rock-type deck configurations and its place in completing the set's roster.
