5 facts about this card
Blastoise is one of Kanto’s original fully evolved starter Pokémon and famously appears on the box art of Pokémon Blue, giving Expedition Blastoise instant nostalgia power for collectors who grew up with the first games.
This card comes from Expedition Base Set, the first English Pokémon TCG expansion to use the e-Reader-compatible dot code strip, making it a landmark release from the early e-Card era.
Expedition #36 is one of the early Blastoise cards of the e-Card period, pairing a classic Stage 2 Kanto icon with the distinctive border and scanning technology that make Expedition cards stand out in a binder.
The artwork is by Hiromichi Sugiyama, a longtime Creatures, Inc. contributor whose work spans the Pokémon TCG and other Pokémon projects, giving this Blastoise a direct link to one of the franchise’s in-house visual creators.
Bulbapedia’s card history shows Blastoise debuted in the TCG back in Base Set, so Expedition #36 feels like a WotC-era reinvention of one of the hobby’s most storied powerhouse Pokémon.
