Where it came from
Released in May 2013 as part of the Pokémon Trading Card Game's Black & White—Plasma Freeze expansion, this card depicts the Electric-type Pokémon Chinchou. The set was centered around the narrative of Team Plasma, a villainous organization in the Pokémon series, and introduced specialized cards featuring the Team Plasma aesthetic, characterized by a distinct silver-blue border and the group's logo.
The card features artwork by illustrator Kouki Saitou, who has been a long-time contributor to the Pokémon TCG. Saitou’s style is known for its clean lines and vibrant, expressive character portrayals. This specific illustration emphasizes Chinchou's bioluminescent nature, capturing the creature in a calm, underwater environment consistent with its Pokedex entry and its typical habitat within the series.
