Provenance

Where it came from

Released in early 2010 as part of the HeartGold & SoulSilver expansion, this card was produced during a period when the Pokémon Trading Card Game was revisiting the Johto region. The set was designed to align with the release of the Nintendo DS remakes, HeartGold and SoulSilver, focusing on the updated aesthetics and mechanics of the Generation IV era.

The artwork for this card was created by Masakazu Fukuda, who is known for his detailed, often dynamic portrayals of Pokémon. In this illustration, Quilava is depicted in a naturalistic style, emphasizing its fiery temperament and the embers emanating from its quills. As an uncommon card, it served as a functional piece in the competitive meta of the time, appreciated by players for its ability to evolve into Typhrog, a staple of early HeartGold & SoulSilver fire-type decks.
