Provenance

Where it came from

The Steelix card from the Sun & Moon—Lost Thunder expansion, released in late 2018, represents a mid-generation addition to the Pokémon Trading Card Game. This set was notable for its focus on Generation II Pokémon and the inclusion of powerful Prism Star cards, drawing inspiration from the lore of the Johto region and the legendary Pokémon Zeraora and Lugia.

The illustration is the work of artist Saya Tsuruta, who utilized a clean, digital aesthetic to emphasize the metallic, serpentine structure of the Steelix. By positioning the Pokémon in a dynamic, coiled pose, the design aims to convey its immense physical weight and defensive capabilities, a visual style that has become characteristic of common and rare metal-type cards within this era of the game.
