Provenance

Where it came from

The Shining Volcanion card was released in 2017 as part of the Shining Legends special expansion for the Pokémon Trading Card Game. This set was notable for reintroducing the 'Shining' Pokémon mechanic, a concept first debuted in the Neo Destiny set from the early 2000s, which featured Pokémon with alternate coloration and unique holographic foil treatments.

The design of the card emphasizes its status as a Rare Shining Pokémon, utilizing a distinct aesthetic that sets it apart from standard holofoil cards. It was illustrated by Mitsuhiro Arita, a veteran artist in the Pokémon franchise known for his foundational work on the original Base Set cards. His approach for this card focused on highlighting the steam-driven nature of the mythical Volcanion, balancing the creature's complex mechanical elements with its status as a legendary water-type entity.
