Cheren's Care

Cheren's Care, identified as card 177/172 in the Brilliant Stars expansion, was released by The Pokémon Company International in February 2022. This card features the character Cheren, a recurring Gym Leader and former rival from the Pokémon Black and White games, depicted in a functional support role. The design follows the established aesthetic of the Sword & Shield series, specifically the subset of Trainer cards rendered in a textured, rainbow-foiled finish that highlights the character illustration against a vibrant, multi-colored background.

The card was illustrated by Hideki Ishikawa, an artist known for his clean lines and character-focused compositions within the Trading Card Game. As a Rainbow Rare variant, the card served as a high-rarity chase item for collectors during the Brilliant Stars era. The card's gameplay effect allows players to heal damage from their Pokémon while returning attached cards to the hand, reflecting Cheren’s established narrative persona as a mentor-like figure who prioritizes the well-being of his team.
