Provenance

Where it came from

Pincurchin 072/193 was released as part of the Pokémon Trading Card Game Scarlet & Violet—Paldea Evolved expansion, which debuted in mid-2023. This set focused on bringing the vibrant, newly discovered Pokémon from the Paldea region into the TCG landscape. As a common card, it was designed to be easily accessible to players and collectors, serving as a functional piece for Electric-type decks while showcasing the quirky, spiky aesthetic of the sea urchin-inspired creature.

The artwork for this specific card was illustrated by kantaro, an artist known for their clean, digital aesthetic in the Pokémon TCG. The design captures Pincurchin in a static, grounded pose that emphasizes its spherical body and bioluminescent spines. By placing the creature against a simple, textured background, the illustration highlights the character's unique anatomy, reflecting the game's broader artistic strategy of blending accessible, recognizable designs with the specific environmental characteristics of the Paldean region.
