5 facts about this card
Shellder #79 is part of EX FireRed & LeafGreen, a set built to celebrate the Kanto remakes and officially listed in the expansion checklist as a Common, making this reverse holo a flashy upgrade of a very humble card from a nostalgia-heavy release.
This card was illustrated by Aya Kusube, an artist longtime collectors associate with playful, handcrafted-looking Pokémon art, which gives even a basic Shellder a distinct ex-era personality.
Shellder is one of the original 151 Pokémon from Kanto, so its appearance in EX FireRed & LeafGreen ties directly back to the Game Boy Advance remakes that revisited the very first generation of the franchise.
Shellder’s strangest bit of game lore is its connection to Slowpoke and Slowbro, a relationship the official Pokémon site still references through later Pokédex lore about a Shellder bite triggering major changes.
EX FireRed & LeafGreen reverse holos are especially recognizable to ex-era collectors because the set was released with Reverse Holofoils, giving low-rarity cards like Shellder a much more premium binder presence than their regular common version.
