Provenance

Where it came from

Wailmer, card 15/84, was released as part of the EX Sandstorm expansion in 2003, which was marketed in some regions under the localized promotional branding often associated with the 'Pitch Black' theme. The card introduced the Whale Pokémon to the trading card game during the third generation of the franchise, reflecting the transition from the Johto to the Hoenn region. This specific design captures the creature's massive, spherical form in a minimalist aquatic setting.

The artwork for this card was rendered by artist Midori Harada, a long-time contributor to the Pokémon TCG known for a soft, painterly style that emphasizes the personality of the subject. By choosing a straightforward pose, the illustration highlights Wailmer's gentle, buoyant nature, which resonated with players who appreciated the shift toward more distinct, biology-focused designs during the early 2000s. It remains a recognizable common card for those who began their collections during the Ruby and Sapphire era.
