5 facts about this card
Grimer #79 is part of Aquapolis, the second main expansion in the Pokémon e-Card Series, making this reverse holo a relic of the distinctive e-Reader era that many WotC collectors chase for its experimental design and dot-code borders.
Aquapolis was released in English on January 15, 2003 and was billed as the largest Pokémon TCG set ever at the time, which gives even a common like Grimer a place in one of the most ambitious vintage expansions ever printed.
This specific Grimer card carries a Pokémon Crystal Pokédex entry through its e-Reader data, tying the card directly to the Game Boy era in a way that makes it feel more like an interactive artifact than a standard common.
The card’s Pokédex text about Grimer creating new poisons when bodies combine matches Grimer’s later video game Pokédex lore, reinforcing its long-running identity as one of Kanto’s most unsettling pollution-born Pokémon.
This card was illustrated by Keiji Kinebuchi, one of the Pokémon TCG’s notable early 3D artists, so Grimer stands out as part of the small but memorable body of CG-style artwork that helped define the look of vintage cards.
