A steel-hard shell protects its tender body. It quietly endures hardships while awaiting evolution.

Where it came from
Metapod, card 2/106, was released in the Flashfire expansion of the Pokémon Trading Card Game in May 2014. This set was notable for its heavy focus on Fire-type Pokémon and the introduction of Mega Evolution cards, specifically centering on the popular Mega Charizard. As a Grass-type evolution in an expansion otherwise dominated by the Fire theme, Metapod served as a functional uncommon card designed to round out the set's evolutionary lines.
The card features artwork by illustrator Kouki Saitou, who has contributed extensively to the Pokémon TCG since the early 2000s. Saitou’s illustration portrays the cocoon Pokémon in a simple, static pose consistent with its established design, reflecting the functional and accessible aesthetic typical of uncommon cards intended for deck-building versatility rather than competitive centerpiece status. Upon its release, the card was received as a standard expansion piece, appreciated by players for its role in evolving Caterpie and by collectors for its place in the complete 106-card set.
