Where it came from
Released in November 2010 as part of the HS—Triumphant expansion, this card represents the final main expansion of the HeartGold & SoulSilver Series in the Pokémon Trading Card Game. It was designed to bridge the mechanics of the era, focusing on the Johto region's Pokémon roster and integrating the powerful Prime and Legend card variants that defined the competitive landscape at the time.
The artwork was created by illustrator Kyoko Umemoto, who chose a vibrant, underwater perspective to capture the jellyfish-like nature of the creature. As a common card, it was produced in high volume to provide players with basic water-type utility. The set was well-received by the community for its high-quality foil treatments and for marking the end of the HGSS era, which remains a nostalgic touchstone for collectors of early modern TCG sets.
