Where it came from
The Flareon card numbered BW88 was released in 2013 as part of the BW Black Star Promos series. These promotional cards were distributed through specialized channels in the Pokémon Trading Card Game ecosystem, often tied to specific retail products or events intended to support the Black & White expansion block. As a Fire-type Pokémon, this specific iteration of Flareon was designed to integrate into the competitive and casual play environments of the era, reflecting the aesthetic sensibilities of the mid-2010s card art styles.
The illustration for this card continues the tradition of showcasing popular Eeveelutions, which have remained central figures in the franchise since the original Kanto generation. The artwork captures Flareon in a dynamic pose, consistent with the vibrant and expressive character design aesthetic that the Pokémon Trading Card Game has refined over decades. Upon its release, it was primarily sought after by collectors aiming to complete the expansive and often elusive Black Star Promo sets, which serve as a historical record of the game's marketing initiatives during the Black & White years.
