We imaged the field of EP250421A (Zhao et al., GCN Circ. 40198) with the DDRAGO wide-field imager on the COLIBRÍ telescope at the Observatorio Astronómico Nacional on the Sierra de San Pedro Mártir in Mexico on the night of 2025-04-22 UTC.

We observed from 2025-04-22 04:54 to 06:03 UTC (T+12.6 to T+13.8 hours after the trigger) and obtained 50 minutes of exposure in total in the r filter. Our observations were performed under regular weather conditions. The data were coadded with the COLIBRÍ pipeline and analysed in STDWeb/STDPipe (Karpov 2025), with photometric calibration against Pan-STARRS DR1. Our photometry is in the AB system and is not corrected for Galactic extinction.

At the position of the optical counterpart (Lee et al., GCN Circ. 40192; Fu et al., GCN Circ. 40193; Liu et al., GCN Circ. 40197), we obtained an upper limit (5-sgima) of:

r > 23.44
