Provenance

Where it came from

The Kyurem-EX card, numbered 96/99, was introduced in the 2012 Pokémon Trading Card Game expansion titled Next Destinies. This set marked a significant shift in the game's mechanics by reintroducing Pokémon-EX, powerful versions of cards characterized by high hit points and potent attacks, often featuring unique artwork that broke the boundaries of the traditional card frame. Kyurem, the legendary Boundary Pokémon, was a central focus of this era following its debut in the fifth generation of the video games.

The card features the signature artwork style of the Black & White era, utilizing a holographic foil treatment that highlights the crystalline, ice-themed aesthetic of Kyurem. Designed to emphasize the dragon's imposing nature, the illustration showcases the creature in a dynamic pose that distinguishes it from its standard-rarity counterparts. Upon release, the card was well-received by competitive players for its Glacier Frost and Outrage attacks, which provided strategic depth to water-type decks during the early 2012 tournament circuit.
