Provenance

Where it came from

The Poliwrath card, numbered 9/75, was released as part of the Neo Discovery expansion of the Pokémon Trading Card Game in 2001. This set was the second in the Neo Series, which introduced the Johto region and Generation II Pokémon to Western audiences. The set was designed to expand the competitive meta by introducing new mechanics and a wider variety of dual-type representations.

The artwork for this card was created by the prolific illustrator Ken Sugimori, who has been a central figure in the visual identity of the franchise since its inception. Sugimori’s design style for this era favored bold, expressive poses that captured the distinct personality of the Pokémon. Within the Neo Discovery set, this holo-rare card was highly regarded by players for its aesthetic contribution to the collection and its status as a staple of the Fighting-type roster during the early Neo competitive era.
