Provenance

Where it came from

Tangela (5/149) was released in the November 2012 Boundaries Crossed expansion, which served as the ninth set in the Black & White series of the Pokémon Trading Card Game. This set was designed to integrate the powerful Pokémon-EX and Ace Spec cards into the competitive meta, reflecting the mechanics introduced in the Black 2 and White 2 video games. As a common card, its role was to provide foundational deck support and complete the set's regional Pokedex representation.

The artwork for this card was illustrated by Midori Harada, a long-time contributor to the Pokémon franchise known for her vibrant, textured style. Harada often emphasizes the organic nature of Grass-type Pokémon, and her design for this Tangela focuses on the creature's signature tangled vines in a lush, natural environment. The card was received by collectors as a standard entry in the series, appreciated primarily for its consistent aesthetic quality and its utility in limited-format play during the Black & White era.
