Where it came from
Released in November 2015, the Cyndaquil card (18/162) is part of the XY—BREAKthrough expansion, the ninth main expansion of the English Pokémon Trading Card Game. This set was designed to introduce the 'BREAK Evolution' mechanic, which allowed cards to be placed horizontally over existing Pokémon to boost their HP and grant new abilities. The set was created to bridge the gap between the core XY series and the subsequent generation of gameplay mechanics.
The artwork for this particular Cyndaquil was illustrated by Ken Sugimori, the primary character designer and conceptual artist for the Pokémon franchise. In this depiction, Cyndaquil is shown in a dynamic, naturalistic pose reflecting its signature fire-type nature. As a common card, it served as a foundational piece for players building water-counter decks, and it remains a staple for collectors focused on the comprehensive XY-era documentation of the original Johto starters.
