Provenance

Where it came from

Released in the 2019 Pokémon Trading Card Game expansion Team Up, the Magikarp & Wailord-GX card represents the introduction of TAG TEAM Pokémon, a unique mechanic designed to feature multiple Pokémon on a single card. The intent behind this design was to shift the gameplay meta toward high-HP powerhouse cards that offered significant rewards to opponents if knocked out, balancing massive offensive potential with tactical risk.

The artwork was illustrated by Shibuzoh, who captured the humorous yet imposing scale contrast between the tiny Magikarp and the gargantuan Wailord. The design was well-received by players for its vibrant, whimsical aesthetic and its utility in competitive water-type decks, where its Towering Splash-GX move became a defining feature of the era's tournament landscape.
