Provenance

Where it came from

The Numel card, numbered 70/97, was released in 2003 as part of the Pokémon Trading Card Game's EX Dragon expansion. This set was notable for introducing the concept of EX cards and Dragon-type Pokémon, marking a significant transition in the game's mechanics and aesthetic direction during the mid-2000s.

The card features artwork by illustrator Mitsuhiro Arita, a veteran artist in the Pokémon franchise known for his clean lines and expressive character designs. His illustration of Numel emphasizes the Pokémon's docile and somewhat comedic nature, fitting the common rarity profile intended for approachable, entry-level gameplay during that era of the trading card game.
