Provenance

Where it came from

Krokorok, appearing here as an Illustration Rare from the Scarlet & Violet—Paldea Evolved expansion, reflects the modern era of the Pokémon Trading Card Game where artistic expression takes center stage. Released in 2023, these specialized cards were designed to move beyond the traditional action-oriented battle poses, instead offering intimate, atmospheric glimpses into the daily lives of Pokémon within their natural habitats.

The card features artwork by Koki Saitou, a prominent illustrator known for infusing the series with vibrant color palettes and textured compositions. In this piece, Krokorok is depicted navigating the desert sands, emphasizing its unique design and ground-type aesthetics. Upon release, the Illustration Rare subset was met with significant praise from collectors for elevating the visual storytelling of the game, turning individual cards into standalone pieces of digital art.
