Provenance

Where it came from

Nincada, card number 108/146, was released as part of the Pokémon Trading Card Game's Legends Awakened expansion in 2008. This set was notable for integrating Pokémon from the fourth generation, specifically focusing on the Sinnoh region's roster and introducing mechanics related to the level-up cards. As a common grass-type card, this Nincada served as a foundational piece for players looking to utilize the evolving line, which was a strategic staple for its unique ability to bring two Pokémon into play simultaneously upon evolution.

The artwork for this card was created by Kouki Saitou, an illustrator known for a clean, approachable style that defined much of the era's aesthetic. Saitou’s depiction captures the insectoid nature of the Pokémon, balancing the technical accuracy expected in early-to-mid era sets with the vibrant, approachable character design that cemented the trading card game's popularity among younger collectors and competitive players alike during the Diamond & Pearl series.
