Provenance

Where it came from

Dugtrio (085/189) was released in the 2020 expansion Darkness Ablaze, a set that bridged the gap between the base Sword & Shield series and the introduction of more complex mechanics like VMAX. As part of the standard set, this card reflects the consistent art direction of the Galar-era Pokémon Trading Card Game, which aimed to highlight established Pokémon through clean, digital illustrations that emphasized their unique biological traits within the evolving game environment.

The card features artwork by Miki Tanaka, an artist who has contributed numerous illustrations to the franchise since the early 2000s. Tanaka opted for a dynamic, top-down perspective that captures the trio of moles emerging from the earth, a hallmark of the Pokémon's design. Like many uncommon cards from this era, it was designed primarily to bolster competitive draft pools and contribute to the set’s comprehensive representation of the Kanto region within the modern competitive framework.
