Provenance

Where it came from

The Darumaka card (17/99) was released in the 2012 Next Destinies expansion, a set that bridged the gap between the Black & White and BW—Destined Rivals eras of the Pokémon Trading Card Game. As a Fire-type common, the card was designed to support the set's focus on the Unova region's diverse ecosystem, introducing players to newer species while maintaining the standard gameplay mechanics of the era.

The artwork for this specific card was rendered by illustrator Kouki Saitou, a long-standing contributor to the franchise known for a clean, expressive style. Saitou captured the Pokémon's signature zen-like, round posture, emphasizing its playful yet sturdy design. Upon release, the card was widely distributed in booster packs and theme decks, becoming a accessible staple for players navigating the competitive landscape of the time.
