Blastoise ex 104/112 is a 2004 EX FireRed & LeafGreen design featuring a powerful forward-moving pose, water-blue framing and the Pokémon-ex layout collectors associate with that period.
Reading the artwork
The illustration projects movement through Blastoise's pose and angled body. The water-oriented colour palette creates contrast with its darker shell and cannon elements. In a collection arranged by visual mood, this card often serves as a strong blue focal point alongside darker purple or red EX-era designs.
What makes the card identifiable
The original design carries 150 HP, the Poké-Power Energy Rain and the attack Hyper Whirlpool. Its printed number 104/112 is a practical identifier. Other Blastoise cards can look quite different, so include the number and set rather than describing it only as a holographic Blastoise.
A note about photographed recreations
A styled Ghost Grails product shot can place the card artwork in a premium dark studio environment. That presentation is not a physical certification. To evaluate an unofficial reproduction's actual stock and finish, use the listing's confirmed details or contact the seller for representative evidence.
Try this collector idea
When displaying Blastoise ex, let the blue artwork contrast against a restrained background. Keep the descriptive label focused on its set, card number and reproduction status to avoid confusion with authentic originals.
Does the Blastoise ex name indicate one exact card?
No. Card names and appearances vary across releases. The number 104/112 and EX FireRed & LeafGreen identify this particular design.
