Provenance

Where it came from

Released as part of the Pokémon Trading Card Game's EX Emerald expansion in 2005, this card captures the Poison-type Swalot during the third generation of the franchise. The set itself was designed to celebrate the Battle Frontier from the Pokémon Emerald video game, introducing mechanics like Pokémon-ex and various trainer cards to reflect the competitive challenges found in the Hoenn region.

The artwork for this specific card was produced by Ken Sugimori, the lead character designer for the Pokémon series. His illustration focuses on a minimalist, clean aesthetic that prioritizes the creature's rotund, iconic silhouette against a simplified background, adhering to the standard design language employed for uncommon cards during the mid-2000s era of the game.
