Provenance

Where it came from

The Chikorita card numbered 53/95 was released in the Call of Legends expansion, which debuted in early 2011. As the final set of the HeartGold & SoulSilver series, it served as a retrospective tribute to the Johto region, featuring updated artwork and mechanics that bridged the transition into the Black & White era of the Pokémon Trading Card Game. This specific card reflects the set's focus on accessibility, serving as a common-rarity staple designed for both casual play and set completion.

The illustration for this card is credited to artist Atsuko Nishida, who has been a long-standing creative force in the Pokémon franchise, having originally designed the character of Pikachu. Her work on this card maintains the clean, soft aesthetic characteristic of her style, capturing Chikorita in a gentle, natural pose. Like other cards in the Call of Legends set, it features a distinctive card template that highlights the card's grass-type affiliation while maintaining the refined layout consistent with the late-era HeartGold & SoulSilver aesthetic.
