The 2003 Pokémon Aquapolis Holo Nidoking #H18 is graded PSA 10 Gem Mint. Illustrated by Naoyo Kimura, this holofoil card features Nidoking framed within the distinct e-Card layout. According to the PSA population report, only 83 copies have achieved the Gem Mint 10 grade. Given its pristine condition assessment and low population from a notoriously condition-sensitive era, this is an investment-grade card.
Aquapolis marks the penultimate expansion produced by Wizards of the Coast before the Pokémon TCG manufacturing license transitioned to Pokémon USA in 2003. The set integrated Nintendo e-Reader Dot Code technology along the left and bottom borders while establishing a dedicated "H" prefix numbering system to differentiate holofoil rares from their non-holographic counterparts. Due to limited distribution near the end of the WotC era and low pull rates for specific holofoils, high-grade examples from Aquapolis remain key pillars of vintage e-Series collecting.Show more
