Where it came from
Dark Dugtrio was released in 2000 as part of the Team Rocket expansion for the Pokémon Trading Card Game. This set marked a significant thematic shift in the game, focusing on the antagonists of the franchise and introducing the 'Dark' prefix to Pokémon, which represented their association with Team Rocket's illicit operations.
The card features artwork by the prolific illustrator Ken Sugimori, who served as a primary character designer for the Pokémon series. The design aesthetic for the Team Rocket set moved away from the bright, idyllic imagery of earlier expansions, opting for grittier depictions that emphasized the disruptive nature of the game's villainous organization.
