Blastoise [Reverse Holo] Card Facts & History
5 facts about this card
In-Game
Blastoise is one of the original fully evolved Kanto starters and famously appears on the box art for Pokémon Blue, which gives Expedition Blastoise an extra layer of nostalgia for collectors who grew up with the Game Boy era.
Set Lore
Expedition Base Set launched in 2002 as part of the e-Card era, making this Blastoise part of the first English Pokémon TCG expansion built around the e-Reader card design collectors instantly recognize from the late Wizards of the Coast period.
Card History
This card’s Reverse Holo version is especially collectible because Expedition Base Set is known for giving every numbered card a reverse-holo counterpart, so vintage fans often chase these parallel finishes alongside the standard holo print.
Artist
Kimiya Masago illustrated this card during his 2000–2005 run on the Pokémon TCG, and his work is prized for its dramatic lighting and painterly, atmospheric style that makes Expedition holos feel more like fantasy art than standard card illustrations.
Card History
Blastoise has relatively few anime appearances compared with some Gen 1 icons, but it still stands out as Gary Oak’s powerhouse partner and as the star of the memorable episode "Beach Blank-Out Blastoise," which helps reinforce its reputation as a heavy-hitting fan favorite.
