Provenance

Where it came from

Monferno 025/172 was released in early 2022 as part of the Brilliant Stars expansion for the Pokémon Trading Card Game. This set was notable for introducing the Trainer Gallery subset, which bridged the gap between standard card design and artistic, full-art illustrations, significantly revitalizing interest in the Sword and Shield era of the game.

The card features artwork by illustrator Ken Sugimori, whose minimalist and functional style has defined the Pokémon franchise since its inception. As a fire-type Pokémon, the illustration depicts Monferno in a dynamic, aggressive pose, adhering to the traditional design philosophy of emphasizing the creature's elemental characteristics while maintaining the clean, accessible aesthetic consistent with the broader Brilliant Stars set.
