Provenance

Where it came from

Released in the Ruby & Sapphire expansion in 2003, this card represents the introduction of the Generation III Pokémon to the international trading card game market. Lairon was designed as a Steel-type Pokémon, a typing that was relatively new to the game at the time, reflecting the shift in mechanics following the release of the Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire video games for the Game Boy Advance.

The artwork for this specific card was illustrated by Ken Sugimori, the primary designer and art director for the Pokémon franchise. His work typically focuses on a clean, model-like presentation that adheres to the established character designs of the series, aiming to familiarize players with the visual identity of the new Hoenn region creatures that define this era of the game.
