Where it came from
The Raichu-GX card, numbered SM213 as part of the Sun & Moon Black Star Promos, was released in late 2019 to coincide with the release of the Hidden Fates expansion. It was primarily distributed through the Raichu-GX Special Collection box, which provided a way for players to acquire a guaranteed holographic version of the card alongside several booster packs. This release strategy was designed to bridge the gap between main set expansions, offering collectors a specific, high-powered card that featured the fan-favorite evolution of Pikachu in a modern, ultra-rare format.
The card features artwork by 5ban Graphics, a creative collective frequently commissioned by The Pokémon Company to produce the sleek, digitally-rendered aesthetic found on many GX and V-series cards. The design utilizes a full-art treatment that emphasizes the dynamic, high-energy nature of the Pokémon, utilizing the shimmering, foil-heavy GX aesthetic that defined the Sun & Moon era. It was received as a functional staple in the competitive trading card game landscape at the time, specifically noted for its 'Powerful Spark' attack, which rewarded players for building up their bench of lightning-type energy.
