Sceptile [Reverse Holo] Card Facts & History
5 facts about this card
Card History
This Sceptile comes from EX Ruby & Sapphire, the June 18, 2003 set that launched the EX era in English and introduced both Generation III Pokémon and Pokémon-ex to the TCG, giving the card extra historical weight as part of a major reset for the game.
Set Lore
Because EX Ruby & Sapphire also rolled out a redesigned card frame with the e-Reader strip and new silver layout elements, this reverse holo Sceptile instantly looks like a bridge between the classic Wizards era and the bold early-ex style collectors chase today.
Artist
The artwork is by Ken Sugimori, which gives this card special appeal since Sugimori’s illustrations are deeply tied to Pokémon’s original visual identity and make early-ex cards feel especially close to the franchise’s core design roots.
In-Game
Sceptile’s presence in this set is a direct nod to Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire, where it debuted as Treecko’s final evolution and stood out among the Hoenn starters for remaining pure Grass while Blaziken and Swampert gained secondary types.
Card History
For anime fans, Sceptile carries real ace-Pokémon prestige because Ash’s Sceptile famously became the first Pokémon in the Sinnoh League to defeat Tobias’s Darkrai, one of the species’ most celebrated moments in the series.
