Provenance

Where it came from

Charjabug 51/149 was released in 2017 as part of the base Sun & Moon expansion for the Pokémon Trading Card Game. This set marked the beginning of the seventh generation of Pokémon, introducing the Alola region and the mechanic of GX cards, which shifted the game's competitive landscape toward higher HP and more powerful abilities.

The card features artwork by Suwama Chiaki, who captured the peculiar, battery-like design of the Bug and Electric-type Pokémon. Within the context of the game, this card is a Stage 1 evolution of Grubbin and is known for its Battery ability, a tactical support feature that allows players to attach an extra Lightning energy to their active Pokémon, reflecting the creature's role as an organic power source.
