Provenance

Where it came from

Released in May 2003, the Staryu card (103/144) was part of the Skyridge expansion, which served as the final set published by Wizards of the Coast for the Pokémon Trading Card Game before the license returned to Nintendo. This set is particularly significant among collectors as it incorporated the E-Reader technology, allowing players to scan cards into a Game Boy Advance for additional content, marking the culmination of a distinct era in TCG design.

The card features artwork by Midori Harada, a prolific illustrator known for her soft, painterly approach to Pokémon design. Harada's rendering of Staryu captures the creature in a tranquil, submerged environment, emphasizing the water-type theme through gentle lighting and bubble effects. While the card is a common-rarity inclusion, it is highly sought after today due to the limited production run of the Skyridge set and the increasing appreciation for the late-stage E-Card era aesthetics.
