Where it came from
The Metagross-GX card was introduced in the 2017 Pokémon Trading Card Game expansion, Guardians Rising. This set was designed to integrate the powerful GX mechanics introduced in the Sun & Moon era, which emphasized high-HP Pokémon capable of executing one-time-use GX attacks to turn the tide of a match. As a pseudo-legendary Pokémon, Metagross was chosen to anchor the set's competitive meta with its Geotech System Ability, which allowed players to accelerate energy directly from their discard pile.
This specific iteration, numbered 157/145, is a Secret Rare variant featuring the rainbow-foil texture that defined the high-end chase cards of the Sun & Moon block. The card features intricate, iridescent line work that shifts colors under light, a design choice intended to highlight the complexity of the digital-mechanical aesthetic of Metagross. It was well-received by competitive players for its utility in deck-building and by collectors who favored the distinct, shimmering aesthetic of rainbow-rare cards from this generation.
