Where it came from
Butterfree VMAX, card 190/189, was released in the 2020 expansion set Darkness Ablaze for the Pokémon Trading Card Game. As a Rainbow Rare variant, this card features a unique etched foil texture and a vibrant, shimmering holographic coating that distinguishes it from its standard VMAX counterpart, reflecting the popular aesthetic choice of including 'secret rare' chase cards within modern sets.
The card was illustrated by ajiichi, a frequent contributor to the franchise, who designed the artwork to emphasize the imposing scale of the Gigantamax form. By capturing the character’s wings spread wide in a dynamic pose, the design seeks to translate the transformation mechanic from the Sword and Shield video games into a tactile, high-rarity collectible that was well-received by players and visual collectors alike upon its release.
