Provenance

Where it came from

Charcadet (043/197) was released in the 2023 Pokémon Trading Card Game expansion titled Obsidian Flames. As a Fire-type Common card, it was designed to introduce the character into the Scarlet & Violet series, reflecting the creature's debut in the Paldea region games. The card serves as a foundational element of the set's mechanical structure, allowing players to build towards the more powerful Ceruledge or Armarouge evolutions.

The card features artwork by illustrator Kouki Saitou, who has contributed to the TCG for many years. Saitou’s depiction of Charcadet emphasizes its energetic and impulsive nature, placing the small Fire-type against a backdrop that highlights its elemental affinity. The design is intended to remain consistent with the broader aesthetic of the Scarlet & Violet era, which favors clean, vibrant, and character-focused illustrations for lower-rarity cards.
