Where it came from
Released in November 2008, the Stormfront expansion was the final set in the Diamond & Pearl series of the Pokémon Trading Card Game. This set is particularly notable for featuring powerful Pokémon LV.X cards and reprints of iconic base set cards, bridging the gap between the classic early generations and the modern mechanics of the time. Tangela, appearing as card number 78/100, serves as a common grass-type representative that maintains the traditional design language of the late 2000s era.
The artwork for this particular Tangela was illustrated by Ken Sugimori, the primary character designer and conceptual artist for the Pokémon franchise. Sugimori’s illustrations from this period typically focused on clean, minimalist backgrounds and poses that highlighted the creature's physical traits, intended to be accessible to both competitive players and casual collectors. The card was well-received at the time as a reliable, functional addition to grass-themed decks that favored consistency over complex evolutionary chains.
