5 facts about this card
Armaldo being card #1 in EX Sandstorm ties it to one of the defining early ex-era releases, since EX Sandstorm was the second main expansion of the EX Series in English and launched on September 18, 2003.
This card is especially memorable to collectors because its Poké-Body, Primal Veil, shuts off Supporter cards while Armaldo is Active, giving a Stage 2 fossil Pokémon a surprisingly oppressive control identity for the era.
Armaldo was important enough to EX Sandstorm that the set’s affiliated Prerelease promo was also Armaldo, now famous for its stamped variant from the same expansion.
Armaldo comes from the Hoenn fossil line introduced in Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire, and its Pokédex lore emphasizes that it emerged onto land after evolving, which gives this card extra appeal as an ancient Pokémon brought back to battle.
Having Mitsuhiro Arita on the artwork gives this reverse holo extra collector prestige, because Arita has illustrated for the Pokémon TCG since its inception and is recognized as one of the game’s most prolific original artists.
