Provenance

Where it came from

Shedinja 11/97 was released as part of the Pokémon Trading Card Game's EX Dragon expansion, which debuted in late 2003. This set was notable for introducing the concept of Pokémon-ex and focusing on the dragon-type mechanic, reflecting the franchise's shift toward more powerful, high-health cards in the competitive landscape of the time.

The card features artwork by illustrator Mitsuhiro Arita, a veteran artist for the Pokémon TCG known for his evocative and painterly style. In this piece, Arita captured Shedinja's unique ghostly essence and the mysterious nature of its evolution from Nincada, utilizing the Holo treatment to emphasize the creature's shell-like, spectral quality that was central to its design in the Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire games.
