Where it came from
The Pokémon GO expansion for the Pokémon Trading Card Game was released in July 2022 as a collaborative set commemorating the mobile game of the same name. This specific Pikachu card, numbered 28/78, serves as a thematic inclusion within the set, which focused heavily on integrating Pokémon characters into realistic environments that mirror the augmented reality experience of the Niantic mobile application.
The illustration features Pikachu positioned against a backdrop that suggests a suburban or park-like setting, consistent with the 'field research' aesthetic of the broader collection. Designed by illustrator sowsow, the artwork employs a clean, digital style that highlights Pikachu's electric type characteristics while maintaining the friendly, approachable design language long established by The Pokémon Company. As a Rare Holo card, it was distributed within standard booster packs, becoming a popular inclusion for collectors focusing on Pikachu variants and the specific cross-promotion of the mobile game.
