Provenance

Where it came from

The Gyarados 043/193 card was released as part of the Paldea Evolved expansion, which debuted in the Pokémon Trading Card Game in mid-2023. This set focused heavily on the mechanics introduced in the Pokémon Scarlet and Violet video games, bringing regional variants and Terastal Pokémon to the forefront of the TCG meta. Gyarados has been a cornerstone of the franchise since its original debut in the Base Set, and its inclusion in this set serves to maintain the presence of iconic Kanto-region Pokémon within modern, current-generation card series.

The card features an illustration by Kouki Saitou, a long-time contributor to the Pokémon TCG known for his dynamic and action-oriented compositions. In this specific piece, Saitou depicts Gyarados in a turbulent aquatic environment, emphasizing the creature's ferocity and massive scale. As a standard rare card within the Paldea Evolved expansion, it was designed to be accessible to players and collectors alike, balancing its status as a powerful Water-type evolution with the aesthetic consistency expected from contemporary TCG releases.
