Where it came from
The Mimikyu SM29 promo card was released in 2017 as part of the Pokémon Trading Card Game's Sun & Moon Black Star Promos series. It was specifically included as an inclusion in the Mimikyu Pin Collection box, a retail set designed to capitalize on the rising popularity of the character, who debuted in the Generation VII video games as a central mascot for the Alola region.
Mimikyu is famously designed as a ghost-type Pokémon hiding under a tattered, homemade cloth meant to resemble Pikachu, a visual choice intended to evoke both sympathy and a sense of uncanny mystery. The card features artwork by illustrator Kouki Saitou, who rendered the character in a slightly textured, soft-focus style that emphasizes its melancholic and elusive personality. Upon its release, the card was well-received by fans and collectors alike, becoming a staple for those curating sets focused on ghost-type Pokémon or specialized mascot character cards.
