Provenance

Where it came from

Released in March 2004 as part of the EX Team Magma vs Team Aqua expansion, this card represents a distinct era in the Pokémon Trading Card Game where focus shifted to the conflict between two villainous organizations. The set was designed to introduce dual-typed Pokémon and specialized mechanics reflecting the thematic struggle between land-expanding and sea-expanding groups in the Hoenn region.

The card features artwork by illustrator Naoyo Kimura, who consistently provided a whimsical yet disciplined style to the franchise during the early 2000s. As a common card, it was produced to be accessible to players building decks around the set's unique synergy, and while it lacks the rarity of the set's holo-rares, it remains a notable example of the era's minimalist character design and thematic consistency.
