Where it came from
Gloom 2/149 was released in 2012 as part of the Pokémon Trading Card Game expansion titled Boundaries Crossed. This set marked the introduction of Pokémon-EX and ACE SPEC cards to the western meta-game, bridging elements from the Japanese Black & White era expansions Freeze Bolt and Cold Fire. The card serves as a mid-stage evolution in the Oddish line, designed to maintain consistency within the grass-type archetypes common to the era's competitive play.
The artwork for this specific iteration was illustrated by Midori Harada, a long-time contributor to the Pokémon TCG known for a soft, watercolor-adjacent style. Harada's design focuses on the creature's classic melancholic expression while utilizing the vibrant, saturated color palettes standard to the Black & White series. Upon its release, the card was widely received by players as a functional utility piece for evolution-heavy decks rather than a primary aesthetic focus of the set.
