Where it came from
Politoed card number 25/145 was released in the Guardians Rising expansion, which debuted in the spring of 2017 as the second set of the Sun & Moon Series. The set drew heavily from the Alola region, introducing players to new mechanics and regional variants. Politoed, a classic Generation II Pokémon, was included as a Rare Holo card to celebrate the expanded roster of Water-type options available to players during that competitive era.
The artwork for this card was illustrated by sui, a recurring artist in the Pokémon Trading Card Game known for a distinct, painterly style. By choosing a vibrant, aquatic backdrop, the artist aimed to emphasize the frog-like Pokémon’s status as a leader among its evolutionary line. Upon its release, the card was received warmly by collectors for its clean design and the nostalgic appeal of a Johto-region favorite integrated into the modern Sun & Moon aesthetic.
