Provenance

Where it came from

The Sceptile-EX card (84/98) was released in 2015 as part of the Ancient Origins expansion of the Pokémon Trading Card Game. This set was notable for introducing ancient traits and new powerful mechanics, marking a period where the card game leaned heavily into high-attack Pokémon-EX cards to define the competitive landscape of the XY era.

The artwork for this card features a dynamic, holographic rendering of Sceptile by illustrator Eske Yoshinob. Yoshinob, a prolific contributor to the series, employed a stark, energetic aesthetic designed to emphasize the creature's speed and grass-type nature, positioning it as a centerpiece pull for collectors and players focused on the competitive viability of the XY-Ancient Origins meta.
