Provenance

Where it came from

Purrloin 83/135 was released in 2013 as part of the Plasma Storm expansion for the Pokémon Trading Card Game. This set was notable for introducing the Team Plasma aesthetic, characterized by a distinct blue and silver border design and the inclusion of powerful Team Plasma Pokémon, which functioned as a unique sub-category within the TCG meta at the time.

The artwork for this card was created by Kouki Saitou, a veteran illustrator in the franchise. His depiction of Purrloin captures the Pokémon’s signature mischievous, feline grace, consistent with the visual standards of the Black & White era. As a common card, it was widely distributed within booster packs, serving as a functional building block for players looking to incorporate Darkness-type cards into their decks during that competitive period.
