Where it came from
The Alolan Sandshrew card from the Cosmic Eclipse expansion, released in late 2019, represents the final main-series set of the Sun & Moon era. It depicts the regional variant of the Pokémon, which adapted to the frigid climates of the Alola region by trading its original Ground typing for Ice and Steel. This transition reflects the game's focus on environmental adaptation as a mechanic in the seventh generation of the Pokémon franchise.
The artwork for this specific card was illustrated by Masakazu Fukuda, a longtime contributor to the Pokémon Trading Card Game. Fukuda’s design captures the creature in a serene, icy landscape, utilizing a clean, illustrative style that emphasizes the character's icy shell. As a common card, it served as a functional piece for collectors and players completing the expansive 236-card set, which is noted for its high volume of secret rare cards and trainer gallery inclusions.
