Provenance

Where it came from

The Pikachu card numbered 50/149 was released as part of the Boundaries Crossed expansion, which arrived in North American markets in November 2012. This set was notable for integrating the powerful Pokémon-EX mechanic and introducing Ace Spec cards, marking a significant shift in the competitive landscape of the Pokémon Trading Card Game during the Black & White series.

This particular illustration was created by the artist kawayoo, known for a distinctively soft, painterly style that often emphasizes light and texture. In this depiction, Pikachu is shown in a forest setting, capturing a moment of quiet focus. Like many common-tier cards in the set, it served as a foundational piece for players while providing collectors with an accessible example of kawayoo's characteristic aesthetic within the Pokémon universe.
