Lore

Why it matters

Larvesta, a Bug and Fire-type Pokémon introduced in the Unova region, is notable for its unusually high evolution level, requiring players to reach level 59 to evolve it into Volcarona. As a common card from the Black Bolt set, this piece represents the early stage of a creature prized by trainers for its powerful potential and rare dual-typing.

Provenance

Where it came from

Larvesta card number 15/86 was released as part of the Black & White: Boundaries Crossed expansion, often associated with the Black Bolt thematic structure within the broader Pokémon Trading Card Game. This set, released in late 2012, focused on the introduction of Pokémon from the Unova region and integrated the mechanic of ACE SPEC cards, marking a significant era for competitive play mechanics.

The card features artwork by illustrator Mizue, who has contributed extensively to the Pokémon TCG series. Her design captures Larvesta in a characteristic pose that emphasizes its fiery typing and bug-like morphology. As a common card, it was designed primarily to bolster the accessibility of the set for players and collectors, representing the larval stage of the powerful Volcarona.
