Provenance

Where it came from

The Scyther card numbered 005/189 was released in 2022 as part of the Astral Radiance expansion for the Pokémon Trading Card Game. This set was heavily inspired by the themes and setting of the video game Pokémon Legends: Arceus, focusing on the Hisui region. The card features a standard Grass-type depiction of the Mantis Pokémon, consistent with its biological profile in the franchise.

The artwork for this specific card was illustrated by Shibuzoh., a frequent contributor to the modern era of the trading card game. Known for a clean and digital-forward aesthetic, Shibuzoh. utilizes sharp lines and vibrant highlights to emphasize Scyther’s predatory nature. As a common card, it served as a functional piece for collectors and players alike, grounding the set's more elaborate 'Radiant' and 'Trainer Gallery' inclusions.
