Provenance

Where it came from

Released in 2007 as part of the Diamond & Pearl expansion, this card marked the debut of the Shinx species in the Pokémon Trading Card Game. Following the introduction of the Sinnoh region in the video games of the same name, this card was produced to build out the roster of Generation IV creatures. It serves as a foundational Electric-type common card, designed to introduce players to the aesthetic and basic mechanics associated with the newly introduced Sinnoh Pokémon.

The card features an illustration by Daisuke Ito, an artist known for his clean, digital style within the TCG during the mid-2000s. Ito captured Shinx in a dynamic, alert pose that emphasizes its signature lion-like features and bold color palette. Upon its release, the card was widely distributed in booster packs and theme decks, functioning as an accessible entry point for collectors and players transitioning into the new Diamond & Pearl card series era.
