Where it came from
The Paras card from the Sun & Moon expansion, released internationally in early 2017, represents the debut of the seventh generation of the Pokémon Trading Card Game. As a common grass-type card, it serves as a fundamental building block for players, reflecting the game's focus on accessibility for newer audiences during the transition into the Alola region's unique ecosystem and design philosophy.
The artwork for this specific card was illustrated by Naoyo Kimura, a long-time contributor to the series. Kimura’s style often emphasizes a clean, approachable aesthetic that captures the creature's lore—in this case, Paras's symbiotic relationship with the parasitic mushrooms on its back—while fitting seamlessly into the standardized, bright, and modern visual language established for the Sun & Moon base set.
