Provenance

Where it came from

The Scyther card numbered 7/149 was released as part of the Boundaries Crossed expansion, which debuted in the Pokémon Trading Card Game in November 2012. This set was notable for introducing Pokémon-EX cards and the ACE SPEC mechanic, bridging the gap between the Black & White series' later stages. As a common card, it served as a functional piece for players building grass-type decks, reflecting the standard design language of the era which emphasized clean, digital-style illustrations.

The artwork was illustrated by Hitoshi Ariga, a prominent artist known for his long-standing contributions to the franchise, including official manga and character designs. Ariga’s approach to this Scyther card centers on dynamic, sharp lines that capture the mantis-like Pokémon’s agile nature, adhering to the energetic aesthetic common to the Black & White expansion cycle. The card was widely distributed in booster packs, making it a ubiquitous piece for both competitive players and casual collectors of the period.
