Dark Octillery Card Facts & History
5 facts about this card
Card History
Dark Octillery stands out as a dual-type Water/Darkness holo in EX Team Rocket Returns, a mechanic that helped make the set’s revived Dark Pokémon feel especially sinister and mechanically distinct.
Set Lore
This card comes from EX Team Rocket Returns, the November 8, 2004 expansion built around Team Rocket’s comeback and remembered by collectors for reintroducing Dark Pokémon in the ex era.
Artist
Dark Octillery was illustrated by Mitsuhiro Arita, one of the most celebrated artists in Pokémon TCG history, which gives this holo extra appeal for collectors who chase iconic illustrator names as much as the Pokémon itself.
Card History
Octillery has a surprisingly broad anime footprint, appearing in everything from Johto-era episodes to contests and even later series battles, giving Dark Octillery a deeper connection to long-running Pokémon media than many ex-era holos.
Set Lore
As one of the numbered holos at the front of the checklist, Dark Octillery belongs to the premium holo lineup in EX Team Rocket Returns, and the official checklist notes these early cards were issued in two foil versions for extra collector intrigue.
