Where it came from
The Chikorita card, numbered RC1/83, was released as part of the Radiant Collection subset within the Pokémon TCG: Generations expansion. Released in 2016 to celebrate the 20th anniversary of the Pokémon franchise, this subset was designed to highlight the aesthetic charm of various Pokémon through delicate, often pastel-hued illustrations. The Generations set served as a retrospective, bringing together cards that honored the long-standing history and evolving art styles of the game.
The illustration for this specific Chikorita card was created by artist kirisAki. The design leans into the whimsical, expressive nature favored by the Radiant Collection series, utilizing soft lighting and rounded character forms to emphasize the gentle temperament of the Grass-type starter. Upon its release, the card was well-received by collectors who favored the decorative and high-gloss finish typical of the sub-series, which contrasted sharply with the more utilitarian art found in standard expansion sets.
