Provenance

Where it came from

The Tangela card numbered 8/108 appeared in the XY—Evolutions expansion, released by The Pokémon Company in late 2016. This set was designed as a nostalgic tribute to the original Base Set, utilizing updated mechanics to reimagine classic designs. It sought to bridge the gap between long-time collectors who grew up with the 1999 releases and a new generation of players, effectively creating a modern interpretation of early TCG aesthetics.

The card features an illustration by Midori Harada, a long-standing artist in the Pokémon franchise known for her vibrant and dynamic character renderings. For this specific entry, Harada maintains the familiar, vine-tangled appearance of the Grass-type Pokémon, focusing on a clean, classic presentation that honors the original Ken Sugimori style while adapting it to the crisp printing standards of the modern XY era. The card was widely distributed as a common rarity, serving as a foundational element of the set's accessibility.
