Dark Blastoise

About this card

Arita frames Blastoise head on, the left cannon aimed straight out of the card and its bore left as a dark circle in the middle of the picture. The Dark treatment sits in the surround more than in the pose, with a torn brown evolution box in place of the usual smooth gold and hard shadows thrown across the shell. Japan received 65 cards, and the English set reached 83 by adding non-holo doubles of all 17 holo cards plus one card Wizards designed itself. That is why this same art comes back at 20/82 without the foil, and why 83 numbers cover only 66 different illustrations.
