Where it came from
The Pikachu card from the EX Sandstorm expansion was released in September 2003 by The Pokémon Company International. This set was the second installment in the EX series, which shifted the game's mechanics toward the more powerful EX-series Pokémon, reflecting the transition into the third generation of the franchise as introduced in the Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire video games.
The card features illustration by Ken Sugimori, the primary character designer for the Pokémon series. His minimalist style focuses on the creature's classic pose, adhering to the standard, clean aesthetic that defined the earlier years of the Pokémon Trading Card Game. As a common card, it served as an accessible staple for players and collectors during the mid-2000s, grounding the more experimental EX-era mechanics with a recognizable and iconic mascot.
