Provenance

Where it came from

The Staryu card, numbered 052/264, was released as part of the Pokémon Trading Card Game expansion titled Fusion Strike, which launched in late 2021. This set was notable for introducing the Fusion Strike battle style, a strategic mechanic designed to encourage synergies between Pokémon that share the 'Fusion Strike' label. Within the broader context of the Sword & Shield series, this card serves as a standard common-rarity entry, acting as a reliable building block for players looking to incorporate water-type support into their decks.

The illustration was created by artist kirisAki, who has contributed numerous character designs to the Pokémon TCG. The artwork captures Staryu in a minimalist and serene style, emphasizing its iconic star-shaped anatomy and jewel-like core. As a common card, it was produced in high volume to ensure accessibility for casual collectors and players alike, receiving standard reception as a foundational piece of the set's composition rather than a sought-after rarity.
