Provenance

Where it came from

Grubbin 018/264 was released as part of the Pokémon Trading Card Game expansion Fusion Strike, which launched internationally in November 2021. The set was designed to introduce the Fusion Strike battle style, emphasizing synergy between cards to mirror the interconnected themes of the Pokémon Sword and Shield video games. As a common card, this Grubbin served as an accessible foundational piece for players, grounding the set's more complex mechanics in familiar early-game creatures.

The card features artwork by illustrator Kouki Saitou, who is a staple of the Pokémon TCG aesthetic. Saitou’s illustration captures the Larval Pokémon in a vibrant, naturalistic style consistent with the broader artistic direction of the Sword and Shield era, which favored clean lines and bright, high-contrast digital coloring. The card was received as a standard utility inclusion, valued primarily for its role in deck construction and for rounding out the set’s biological diversity.
