Poliwrath Card Facts & History
5 facts about this card
Set Lore
Expedition Base Set was the first main expansion of the Pokémon TCG e-Card era, so this Poliwrath sits right at the start of the bold border-and-dot-code redesign that made WotC’s final Pokémon sets feel radically different from everything before them.
Card History
This card’s Plunge Poké-Power is a perfect snapshot of Expedition’s design shift, because the set introduced the new Poké-Power and Poké-Body system that replaced the older all-purpose Pokémon Power label.
Artist
Collectors chase Yuka Morii cards for their instantly recognizable handmade look, created by sculpting tiny clay Pokémon and photographing them in real-world scenes, which gives this Poliwrath a tactile charm few WotC rares can match.
In-Game
Poliwrath became even more interesting in the games once Poliwhirl gained a split evolution, because from Generation II onward players had to choose between the powerhouse Poliwrath and the trade-with-King’s-Rock evolution into Politoed.
Card History
Poliwrath’s rivalry with Misty’s Poliwhirl in the anime gave the line a memorable underdog-versus-evolved-form moment, making a Stage 2 Poliwrath card like this feel especially satisfying to collectors who remember that showdown.
