Provenance

Where it came from

The Persian card, numbered 54/83, was released as part of the Generations expansion in 2016. This set was specifically designed to commemorate the 20th anniversary of the Pokémon franchise, featuring a mix of new cards alongside reprints of classic designs. It was a bridge between contemporary mechanics and the nostalgia of the original base sets, intended for both longtime fans and a newer generation of players.

The card features an illustration by Kouki Saitou, an artist prolific within the trading card game community. Saitou’s approach to the design focuses on emphasizing the feline elegance associated with Persian, using clean, sharp lines to highlight the creature's poise. Upon release, the set was well-regarded for its high-quality foil treatments and its ability to evoke the aesthetic of early Pokémon media while maintaining modern competitive standards.
