Provenance

Where it came from

The Latios SM88 promo card was released in 2018 as part of the Pokémon Trading Card Game's Sun & Moon Black Star Promos series. This specific card was distributed as part of a blister pack promotion, designed to celebrate the legendary Pokémon from the Hoenn region by featuring updated holographic patterns consistent with the Sun & Moon era aesthetic.

The card utilizes artwork by sui, a frequent illustrator for the Pokémon Trading Card Game known for a dynamic, clean style. The design emphasizes Latios in a sleek, high-energy flight pose, intended to capture the character's signature agility and psychic typing. Upon its release, it was well-received by collectors who favored the accessibility of promotional cards that maintained the high-quality holographic foil treatments seen in mainline expansion sets.
