Provenance

Where it came from

The Swalot card from the Crystal Guardians expansion was released in 2006, a set distinguished by its focus on the Delta Species phenomenon where Pokémon were depicted with altered elemental typings due to electromagnetic interference on Holon. Developed by The Pokémon Company and illustrated by Ken Sugimori, this card captures Swalot as a Grass-type, consistent with the set's thematic experimentation with traditional type matchups.

Sugimori, the primary illustrator for the series, maintained his signature clean, minimalist style for this piece, focusing on the character's signature gaping maw and spherical form. While Swalot as a species was introduced in the Generation III games, its appearance in the TCG during the mid-2000s reflected a period when the game was heavily emphasizing holographic effects and diverse regional variants, contributing to the card's status as a notable collectible for fans of the EX-era aesthetic.
