Provenance

Where it came from

Released in early 2012 as part of the Pokémon Trading Card Game's Next Destinies expansion, this card captures the legendary fire bird Moltres in its classic holo-rare format. The set was designed to introduce powerful Pokémon-EX cards and mark a shift in the game's competitive landscape, with this particular card serving as a traditional rarity anchor for collectors focusing on the legendary bird trio.

The artwork follows the established aesthetic of the Black & White series, characterized by bold lines and vibrant, high-contrast digital coloring that emphasizes the creature's elemental nature. While it was not a centerpiece for competitive play compared to the set's flagship EX cards, it remains a staple for enthusiasts of the Kanto region legends, representing the continued appeal of original generation Pokémon within the modern era of the game.
