Provenance

Where it came from

Skarmory first appeared in the Pokémon Trading Card Game set Boundaries Crossed, released internationally in late 2012. This set was notable for introducing the Pokémon-EX mechanic and incorporating cards from the Japanese BW7 expansion, Plasma Gale, which focused heavily on Team Plasma's influence within the Unova region.

The card features artwork by Naoki Saito, a prolific illustrator known for his dynamic and vibrant depiction of Pokémon. Saito’s work on this card emphasizes the metallic, rigid aesthetic of the Steel-type bird, utilizing a sharp, angular style that reflects the character's avian design. Upon release, it was well-received by players and collectors for its utility as a reliable, uncommon-tier metal type, serving as a functional staple for competitive decks of the era.
