What it does

It agilely leaps about the jungle and uses the sharp leaves on its arms to strike its prey.

Where it came from
Sceptile, card 8/160, was released as part of the Pokémon Trading Card Game: XY—Primal Clash expansion, which debuted in early 2015. The set was designed to introduce the Primal Reversion mechanic, centered on the ancient forms of Groudon and Kyogre, reflecting the thematic focus on the Hoenn region's legendary Pokémon and their historical origins in the franchise lore.
The artwork for this specific card was illustrated by 5ban Graphics, a design collective frequently commissioned by The Pokémon Company to produce sleek, digitally rendered illustrations for the trading card game. Their approach emphasizes clean lines and vibrant coloring, aiming to capture the dynamic, predatory nature of Sceptile while maintaining the standardized aesthetic established for the XY era of cards.
