Where it came from
The Metagross-GX card debuted in the Pokémon Trading Card Game expansion Guardians Rising, released in the spring of 2017. This specific iteration, numbered 157a/145, is a Black Star Promo variant that features a distinct full-art etched design. It was created to highlight the powerful Steel and Psychic-type Pokémon introduced in the third generation, serving as a cornerstone of the competitive metagame during the Sun & Moon series.
The artwork for this card was provided by 5ban Graphics, a prolific studio known for producing the majority of GX and full-art cards during this era. Their design aesthetic emphasizes a sleek, metallic finish and high-contrast digital illustrations intended to give the card a premium feel. The card was well-received by players for its Geotech System ability, which allowed for efficient energy acceleration, cementing its status as both a functional tool for deck building and a sought-after aesthetic piece for collectors.
