Lore

Why it matters

Monferno, featured here as an uncommon fire-type Pokémon, serves as the vital evolution link between Chimchar and the powerful Infernape. Collectors often value cards from the Ultra Prism set for their distinctive role in the Sun & Moon era, which introduced the powerful Prism Star mechanic to the Pokémon Trading Card Game.

Provenance

Where it came from

Monferno 22/156 was released in early 2018 as part of the Ultra Prism expansion for the Pokémon Trading Card Game. This set was notable for introducing the Prism Star card mechanic and bringing Generation IV Pokémon from the Sinnoh region into the Sun & Moon series era of gameplay. The card serves as a mid-stage evolution, bridging the gap between Chimchar and Infernape within the mechanics of the game.

The artwork for this specific card was illustrated by Kouki Saitou, a long-time contributor to the Pokémon TCG known for his dynamic character poses. Saitou chose to depict Monferno in an active, agile stance, emphasizing its nature as a Fighting-type Pokémon through its expressive posture and focus on movement. Like many uncommon cards in the set, it was designed to support limited play formats and provide players with accessible evolution lines for competitive deck building.
