Where it came from
The Darkrai XY114 card was released in 2016 as part of the XY Black Star Promos series, a collection of cards distributed outside of standard booster sets to support the broader XY expansion era. This specific card was made available through the Mythical Pokémon Collection: Darkrai box, which served as part of the Pokémon 20th Anniversary celebration. The design features Darkrai, the Pitch-Black Pokémon, rendered with the signature dark, moody aesthetic that defines the type, intended to highlight its elusive and legendary status within the franchise lore.
The illustration is credited to Mitsuhiro Arita, a veteran artist whose work has been instrumental in defining the visual language of the trading card game since its inception. Arita utilized a sharp, high-contrast composition to emphasize Darkrai’s spectral nature, aiming to convey a sense of mystery rather than direct aggression. Upon its release, the card was well-received by collectors who favored the specific holographic treatment and the thematic alignment with the 20th-anniversary tribute to Sinnoh-region legendary Pokémon.
