Provenance

Where it came from

Candela (SWSH228) was released in 2022 as part of the Pokémon Trading Card Game's Sword & Shield Black Star Promos series. This card was included specifically in the Pokémon GO Elite Trainer Box, a collaborative set that celebrated the sixth anniversary of the augmented reality mobile game Pokémon GO. The card features Candela, the leader of Team Valor, which is one of the three factions players join within the app.

The card was illustrated by kirisAki, a veteran artist known for their clean, vibrant style within the TCG. The design captures Candela in her signature Team Valor aesthetic, emphasizing her role as an encouraging mentor focused on strength and fire-type research. As a Supporter card, it offers a specific utility within the game, allowing players to look at the top cards of their deck and search for energy cards, reflecting the aggressive, power-focused playstyle associated with her character in the Pokémon GO lore.
