Provenance

Where it came from

The Braixen card numbered 16/131 was released in May 2018 as part of the Pokémon Trading Card Game expansion Forbidden Light. This set was based on the Sun and Moon generation, specifically centered around the legendary Pokémon Necrozma and the Ultra Beasts, and it introduced various gameplay mechanics designed to keep the competitive landscape balanced while highlighting the unique abilities of Kalos region Pokémon like Braixen.

The artwork for this card was created by Mizue, a long-standing illustrator within the Pokémon TCG whose distinct, vibrant style emphasizes the playful and mystical nature of fire-type creatures. This particular card was intended for general distribution within expansion packs and theme decks, designed to provide players with a reliable mid-tier Fire-type option that reflects the established aesthetic of the series’ modern era.
