Ariados is the long-legged spider Spinarak grows into — a Bug/Poison hunter that lays a single silk thread to its lair so it can track prey through the dark. Its cards form a modest line led by the Aquapolis holo.
Ariados is led by the Aquapolis H-holo and its non-holo sibling, with Dark Ariados and a trainer-gallery print adding range to the spider line. Ranked by verified sold price.
The H-prefix marks a full Aquapolis holo from 2003 — the e-Card set infamous for off-center cuts. A well-centered, clean Ariados is a genuine find given how thin the run was, leading the line.
