Provenance

Where it came from

Moltres 9/124 was released in 2016 as part of the XY: Fates Collide expansion for the Pokémon Trading Card Game. This set was designed to introduce cards themed around the Pokémon Zygarde and the concept of fusion, reflecting the tactical shifts in the game's meta during the XY era. The artwork for this specific card was rendered by Kouki Saitou, a veteran illustrator known for his dynamic, clean style that emphasizes the elemental power of the subjects.

As a Rare-tier card in the set, the design focuses on Moltres's signature fire-type abilities, featuring an action-oriented illustration intended to evoke the legendary status of the bird Pokémon. While not a primary chase card compared to the set's Mega Evolutions or Full Art variants, it is recognized by collectors as a staple representative of the XY: Fates Collide series and a consistent example of Saitou’s established aesthetic for the franchise.
