Provenance

Where it came from

Released in 2004 as part of the FireRed & LeafGreen expansion for the Pokémon Trading Card Game, this card was produced to coincide with the Nintendo Game Boy Advance remakes of the original Pokémon titles. The set was designed to reintroduce the Kanto region to a new generation of players, focusing on the classic starters and the evolution mechanics of the era. As a common card, it was widely distributed in booster packs to serve as a foundational element for players building Water-type decks.

The artwork for this card features the iconic Squirtle character illustrated by Mitsuhiro Arita, one of the most prolific artists in the history of the franchise. Arita’s style for this card emphasizes a clean, illustrative aesthetic that maintains the visual identity of the character while aligning with the updated graphic style of the FireRed and LeafGreen games. Upon its release, the card was well-received by collectors and players alike, praised for its nostalgic appeal and its utility as a reliable, basic Pokémon card within the competitive meta of the time.
