Provenance

Where it came from

The Krookodile card, numbered 71/146, was released in the XY expansion of the Pokémon Trading Card Game, which debuted in early 2014. This set marked the introduction of the Generation VI Pokémon into the card game, transitioning players into the Kalos region. The card features artwork by Midori Harada, a veteran illustrator for the franchise known for a dynamic style that emphasizes the predatory nature of the featured creatures.

Designed as a Rare-tier card, this version of Krookodile functions as a Darkness-type Pokémon. The design aesthetic reflects the XY era's focus on updated card layouts and the integration of new mechanics. It was received by the player base as a staple for deck building within its specific typing, valued for its utility in competitive play during the 2014-2015 season.
