Where it came from
The Delphox card, numbered 17/131, was released as part of the Pokémon Trading Card Game expansion Forbidden Light in May 2018. This set was centered on the legendary Pokémon Zygarde and the themes of the Kalos region, marking a period where the game focused on integrating the mechanics of the Sun & Moon series with established regional fan favorites. As a Fire-type stage-two evolution, this card serves as a representative of the generation six starters, designed to highlight Delphox's mystical, mage-like aesthetic.
The artwork for this specific card was commissioned from the illustrator Kagemaru Himeno, a long-standing contributor to the Pokémon TCG known for a distinctive, painterly style. In this depiction, Delphox is posed with its signature fiery branch, emphasizing the character's role as both a combatant and a psychic practitioner. The Rare Holo treatment provides a foil finish that reflects the card's status within the set, aiming to appeal to players who appreciate the visual evolution of the Fire starter line.
