Provenance

Where it came from

Honchkrow (79/145) was released in the Guardians Rising expansion of the Pokémon Trading Card Game in 2017. This set was part of the Sun & Moon series, which introduced the Alola region and new mechanics such as GX cards, marking a shift in the game's aesthetic and competitive landscape. The card reflects the transition into this modern era, focusing on the dark-type 'Big Boss' Pokémon known for its role as a leader in Pokémon lore.

The artwork for this specific card was illustrated by Kouki Saitou, a long-time contributor to the TCG. Saitou is recognized for a distinct, painterly style that emphasizes the personality of the Pokémon rather than just its battle stance. In this illustration, Honchkrow is depicted in a stark, nocturnal setting that leans into its shadowy and mobster-inspired design, capturing the creature's authoritative and intimidating presence within the Pokémon universe.
