Provenance

Where it came from

The Kyogre-EX card, designated as XY41 within the XY Black Star Promos series, was released in early 2015 to coincide with the launch of the Primal Clash expansion. This promotional release served as a bridge for players and collectors to access powerful EX-mechanic cards outside of traditional booster pack pulls, often distributed through specialized retail blister packs or collection boxes found in hobby stores.

The illustration is credited to Eske Yoshinob, a prolific artist in the Pokémon Trading Card Game who is recognized for his dynamic, high-energy compositions. For this piece, Yoshinob utilized the aggressive, armored aesthetic of Primal Kyogre, focusing on the character's imposing scale and elemental power. The design reflects the mid-XY era's focus on high-impact, full-art-style aesthetics, and the card was generally well-received by competitive players for its utility in water-type synergy decks during the 2015 tournament circuit.
