Provenance

Where it came from

The Swanna card, numbered 27/98, was released in the 2011 Emerging Powers expansion for the Pokémon Trading Card Game. This set served as the second installment in the Black & White Series, specifically designed to introduce players to the newly debuted Unova region Pokémon following the franchise's successful transition to the fifth generation of video games.

The card features an illustration by Kouki Saitou, who is a veteran artist in the Pokémon TCG space. Saitou’s design focuses on capturing Swanna’s elegant, swan-like aesthetic, emphasizing its status as a Water and Flying-type Pokémon. Like many rare cards from the early Black & White era, it was intended to serve as a bridge for players integrating the new mechanics and characters from the Nintendo DS titles into the competitive card game environment.
