Where it came from
The Skiploom card 97/91 originates from the Paldean Fates expansion, released in early 2024 as part of the wider Scarlet & Violet series of the Pokémon Trading Card Game. This set was designed to celebrate the distinct aesthetics of the Paldea region, focusing heavily on the inclusion of Shiny Pokémon, which are rare, differently colored variants that have been a cornerstone of collector interest since the second generation of the franchise. By featuring this vibrant, distinct coloration on a Shiny Rare card, the design team aimed to provide an accessible yet visually striking chase card for enthusiasts.
The illustration for this particular entry continues the tradition of featuring the Pokémon in an environment that reflects its natural habitat, with the artistic direction emphasizing the light, airy quality associated with the grass-type plant Pokémon. The card itself occupies a special place within the set as part of the Shiny Vault, a subset within Paldean Fates that prioritizes alternate-art and shiny iterations. It has been received by the collecting community as a quintessential example of the modern Shiny Rare card, prized for its clean design and its role in completing set collections.
