Provenance

Where it came from

The Cyndaquil card from the Pokémon Trading Card Game's EX Hidden Legends expansion was released in 2004. This set was part of the third generation of the TCG, bridging the gap between the original Japanese e-Card series and the mechanics introduced in the EX series. The set focused on the theme of 'hidden' Pokémon found in remote locations, reflecting the ongoing expansion of the Pokédex during the Ruby and Sapphire era.

The illustration for this card was provided by the artist Ken Sugimori, whose work has been instrumental in defining the visual identity of the Pokémon franchise since its inception. Sugimori’s design style for this card features a clean, minimalist approach that emphasizes the creature’s iconic flame-spitting posture. As a common card, it was widely distributed in booster packs, serving as an accessible entry point for players looking to bolster the fire-type rosters in their competitive decks during the mid-2000s.
