Provenance

Where it came from

Araquanid first appeared in the Pokémon Trading Card Game as part of the Burning Shadows expansion, released internationally in August 2017. The card depicts the Water/Bug-type Pokémon introduced in the seventh generation games, Pokémon Sun and Moon. This specific card, numbered 15/147, features the Pokémon in its natural habitat, emphasizing its unique bubble-dwelling biology within the aquatic ecosystems of the Alola region.

The artwork for this card was created by Kouki Saitou, a veteran illustrator in the Pokémon TCG scene. Saitou opted for a dynamic, slightly foreboding composition that highlights the creature's water bubble, which serves both as a defensive mechanism and an offensive tool. Upon its release, the card was received as a functional rare-tier addition to Grass-type decks, valued by players for its 'Water Bubble' ability, which provided a strategic defensive advantage against Fire-type attackers.
