Where it came from
Shiftry-GX was released as part of the Pokémon Trading Card Game expansion Celestial Storm, which launched in August 2018. This specific card, numbered 169/168, is a Secret Rare Rainbow variant, a popular aesthetic style introduced during the Sun & Moon series that features a textured, monochromatic holographic finish applied over the character art. The card was designed to highlight the Grass-type Shiftry, focusing on its ability to manipulate the board through its 'Detour' ability and the powerful 'Tropical Sweep' attack, which rewards players for having Grass Energy in play.
The artwork for this card was created by 5ban Graphics, a prolific studio known for producing numerous GX and full-art cards throughout the Sun & Moon era. Their design approach for these Secret Rares involved stripping back the traditional colors of the Pokémon in favor of a prismatic, iridescent sheen that distinguishes these cards from standard set releases. Upon its release, the card was received primarily by competitive players interested in its unique synergy with various Grass-type support cards and by collectors seeking to complete the Celestial Storm master set.
