Provenance

Where it came from

The Larvitar card numbered 79/181 was released in the Team Up expansion for the Pokémon Trading Card Game, which debuted in early 2019. This set was notable for introducing TAG TEAM GX cards, a mechanic that emphasized powerful duos in battle, though this particular common card serves as a foundational element of the set's broader Pokedex representation.

The artwork for this card was illustrated by Kouki Saitou, a long-standing contributor to the Pokémon TCG known for his clean, expressive style. In this entry, the design focuses on a grounded, naturalistic depiction of the Rock Skin Pokémon, emphasizing its connection to the earth element as a Fighting-type creature within the game's strategic landscape.
