Provenance

Where it came from

The Combusken card 25/106 originates from the Pokémon Trading Card Game's EX Emerald expansion, released in 2005. This set was designed to tie into the aesthetic and thematic elements of the Pokémon Emerald video game, which featured the Hoenn region's tropical environment. The card features artwork by Ken Sugimori, whose iconic illustrative style defined the early look of the franchise, emphasizing clean lines and dynamic poses to capture the essence of the creature's evolution.

As an Uncommon card, Combusken served as a mid-tier evolutionary stage in the game's competitive landscape at the time. Its inclusion in the Emerald set allowed players to incorporate the Fire and Fighting-type synergy into their decks, reflecting the dual-type progression of the Torchic line. The card is highly regarded by collectors today for its nostalgic representation of the Generation III era and its consistent adherence to the established visual language of the Pokémon brand.
