Swampert Card Facts & History
5 facts about this card
Card History
Swampert from Great Encounters stands out in Diamond & Pearl play history because its Wash Out Poké-Power let you repeatedly shift Water or Fighting Energy from the Bench to the Active Spot, giving this holo a distinctly tactical identity beyond raw damage.
Set Lore
As card #9 in Great Encounters, this Swampert comes from the fourth main Diamond & Pearl expansion, a 2008 set remembered for its dramatic lineup of heavy hitters and LV.X chase cards like Darkrai, Dialga, and Palkia.
In-Game
This card’s flavor text pulls directly from Swampert’s Pokédex lore in the games, spotlighting the famous image of it swimming while towing a large ship and smashing through opponents with its massive arms.
Card History
Swampert also made a memorable Advanced Generation anime appearance in "Abandon Ship!", where a once-friendly Marshtomp had evolved and turned feral aboard the Forsaken Ship, giving the species a darker, more mysterious spotlight than collectors usually expect from a starter evolution.
Artist
The artwork is by Kouki Saitou, a longtime Pokémon TCG illustrator whose work is closely associated with dynamic, high-energy card compositions, adding extra appeal for collectors who chase cards by artist as much as by Pokémon.
