Provenance

Where it came from

Maractus (10/106) was released in 2014 as part of the Flashfire expansion for the Pokémon Trading Card Game. This set was notable for its heavy focus on Fire-type Pokémon, introduced to capitalize on the popularity of Charizard, which featured prominently across multiple cards in the collection. Maractus was included as an uncommon grass-type card, serving as a tactical choice for players looking to incorporate utility or specific type-matchup advantages within their decks during the XY era of the game.

The artwork for this card was provided by illustrator Midori Harada, a long-time contributor to the Pokémon franchise known for her vibrant and often whimsical style. Harada's design captures the cactus-inspired aesthetic of the Pokémon, emphasizing its playful, rhythmic nature within a desert-like environment. The card was received as a standard addition to the set, valued primarily by collectors interested in completing the Flashfire series and players exploring the various mechanics introduced during the XY cycle.
