Provenance

Where it came from

Niwatori was released in the North American Metal Raiders expansion in 2002. As a normal monster card from the early era of the Yu-Gi-Oh! Trading Card Game, it belongs to the foundational set of cards that defined the game's initial mechanical and aesthetic landscape, serving as a lower-tier monster typically used to fill out decks during casual play.

The card features an illustration of a fantastical, armor-clad rooster, consistent with the whimsical and sometimes erratic design language of early Japanese creature card games. Much of the artwork from this period was created by Konami’s internal design team, aiming to build a vast world of monsters that blended traditional folklore with exaggerated, toy-like mechanical elements. While not competitively viable, Niwatori is remembered by collectors as a relic of the game's formative years.
