Where it came from
The Inkay card, numbered 89/147, was released in the Burning Shadows expansion of the Pokémon Trading Card Game, which debuted in 2017. As part of the Sun & Moon series, this set was heavily influenced by the aesthetic and gameplay mechanics of the Pokémon Sun and Moon video games. The card serves as a standard common entry, designed to integrate the dark-type cephalopod Pokémon into the player's deck, emphasizing the tactical variety characteristic of the era's competitive play.
The artwork for this specific card was crafted by illustrator Mizue, who has contributed extensively to the Pokémon TCG series. Mizue's design captures Inkay in a typically whimsical yet slightly mysterious pose, consistent with the creature's lore as a Pokémon that can flip its lights to confuse prey. The illustration was received by collectors as a reliable representation of the species, fitting seamlessly into the Burning Shadows collection's broader emphasis on elemental versatility and the inclusion of powerful GX cards.
