Provenance

Where it came from

The Machamp card from the Detective Pikachu expansion was released in 2019 as a promotional tie-in to the live-action film of the same name. Designed to bridge the gap between the aesthetic of the Pokémon Trading Card Game and the film's realistic visual style, the set features Pokémon rendered in a hyper-realistic, CGI-integrated format intended to mimic their appearance on the silver screen.

This particular card, numbered 13/18, captures Machamp in its characteristic four-armed fighting stance. The card was produced by The Pokémon Company International during a period of cross-media synergy, aiming to appeal to both long-time collectors and new fans introduced to the franchise through the film’s unique, grounded interpretation of the Pokémon world.
