Where it came from
Grotle 31/95 was released in 2010 as part of the HS—Unleashed expansion, the second set in the HeartGold & SoulSilver series. The set drew significant inspiration from the Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver video games, focusing on the Johto region and the unique mechanics of Pokémon Prime and Legend cards. Grotle, a grass-type Pokémon introduced in the fourth generation, appears here in a standard uncommon capacity, fitting into the aesthetic shift toward updated layouts and high-contrast card borders that defined the era.
The card features artwork by Midori Harada, a prolific illustrator for the Pokémon Trading Card Game known for her soft, expressive watercolor style. Harada often depicts Pokémon in naturalistic, serene environments, and her illustration for this Grotle emphasizes its sturdy, turtle-like morphology resting within a lush, green forest setting. While the card is not a mechanical centerpiece of the HS—Unleashed set, it is well-regarded by collectors for the consistency and gentle characterization typical of Harada’s contributions to the series.
