Provenance

Where it came from

The Charizard ex card from the Pokémon Scarlet & Violet—151 expansion was released in 2023 to celebrate the original 151 Pokémon of the Kanto region. As a Special Illustration Rare, it represents a contemporary reimagining of the franchise's most iconic fire-type creature, designed to appeal to both long-time fans of the original games and modern collectors who value high-end aesthetic craftsmanship.

The card features artwork by Mitsuhiro Arita, a legendary illustrator whose history with the Pokémon Trading Card Game dates back to the original Base Set. Arita's design choice for this card emphasizes a dynamic, atmospheric perspective that moves away from standard static portraiture, reflecting the evolution of card artistry toward more narrative-driven, full-art compositions that were met with significant acclaim upon the set's release.
