Where it came from
Salamence V (185/189) was released in August 2020 as part of the Sword & Shield—Darkness Ablaze expansion for the Pokémon Trading Card Game. The set focused heavily on the Charizard VMAX phenomenon, but included several prominent dragon-type Pokémon to round out the competitive landscape. This specific card, an ultra-rare variant, features a sleek, full-art design that highlights the imposing silhouette of the Salamence line.
The artwork was illustrated by PLANETA Mochizuki, a frequent contributor to the Pokémon TCG who is noted for their digital, high-contrast style. In this piece, the artist aimed to capture the ferocious, aerial nature of the Pokémon, utilizing sharp angles and a monochromatic color palette fitting for a colorless-type card. It was received by the player base as a visually striking collectible, valued both for its aesthetic departure from traditional card borders and its utility in specific deck builds during the Sword & Shield era.
