Collector’s notes
- Grimer 79/147 (Aquapolis)
Grimer rises out of a green sludge puddle in a dim, red-brick alley, mouth hanging open and eyes wide, rendered in the glossy CG style that defines art by Keiji Kinebuchi. The purple lighting and stone ledges make it feel like a sewer corner at night. As an Aquapolis common from the e-Card era, it draws set builders who prize that run's dotted yellow borders and moody digital scenes.
- Grimer 56/109 (Team Rocket Returns)
Grimer fills the whole frame here, a purple sludge face with wide white eyes and a goofy open grin, its gooey arms curling in from the edges. Art by Aya Kusube, the soft pencil-and-color style gives it a sketchbook charm. As a common from Team Rocket Returns, it appeals to set completers and fans of the EX era's quirkier Poison-type art.
- Grimer 57/97 (Dragon)
Grimer here is a clay figure by Yuka Morii, a purple sludge blob with wide round eyes and a gaping mouth, oozing out of a bright yellow puddle ringed by tufts of model shrubbery against a dark background. Morii's handmade sculpture cards have a devoted following, and this Common from Dragon is an easy, charming way to add that tactile, diorama look to an EX era Grimer collection.
