Provenance

Where it came from

The Pikachu card featured in the Lost Origin expansion, numbered 052/196, was released in September 2022 as part of the Sword & Shield series. This set was designed to highlight the mechanic of the Lost Zone, a thematic area of the game where cards are moved out of play, reflecting the mysterious ruins and ancient distortions central to the lore of the Pokémon Legends: Arceus video game.

The artwork for this specific card was illustrated by kurumitsu, a frequent contributor to the Pokémon Trading Card Game known for a clean, minimalist style. In this depiction, Pikachu is rendered in a soft, approachable manner consistent with its role as a common-tier card intended to fill out the roster of a player's deck rather than serve as a primary offensive powerhouse.
