✨ This exceptional Nidoking H18/H32 Holo from the iconic Pokémon Aquapolis set (2003) has been professionally CGC Graded Mint 9, making it a beautifully preserved high-grade example from one of the most desirable sets of the vintage e-Reader era. Featuring striking Naoyo Kimura artwork, the distinctive Aquapolis e-Reader design and a stunning holofoil backdrop, this is a fantastic example of one of Generation I’s most recognisable Pokémon.
💎 A premium e-Reader era collectible
Aquapolis is widely regarded as one of the standout sets from the later Wizards of the Coast era, renowned for its distinctive artwork, e-Reader card design and extremely desirable H-series holographic subset. Released during an era when Pokémon card print runs and collector interest were considerably different from today, high-quality examples have become increasingly sought after.
Nidoking H18/H32 forms part of Aquapolis’ prestigious 32-card Holo Rare subset, making it considerably more desirable than the standard cards from the set. Combining an original Generation I Pokémon with one of the most celebrated vintage Pokémon sets, this card has fantastic appeal for both dedicated Nidoking collectors and serious e-Reader enthusiasts.
🔥 Why CGC Graded?
CGC is recognised for its precise grading standards, crystal-clear slabs and strong global collector acceptance. A CGC Mint 9 represents an impressive level of preservation for a card from this era, offering excellent overall presentation and strong eye appeal.
For collectors who appreciate professionally authenticated vintage Pokémon cards, CGC graded examples provide excellent protection, presentation and confidence in the condition and authenticity of the card.
📈 Investment potential
