Where it came from
The Torkoal card, numbered 023/196, was released as part of the Lost Origin expansion for the Pokémon Trading Card Game in September 2022. This set drew heavy inspiration from the Hisui region introduced in the video game Pokémon Legends: Arceus, incorporating the 'Lost Zone' mechanic which allows players to strategically send cards to a specialized discard pile to power up specific abilities. Torkoal, a Fire-type Pokémon first introduced in the third generation, fits into this set as a standard uncommon card, representing the steady expansion of available Pokémon during the Sword & Shield series.
The illustration for this particular Torkoal was created by artist Kouki Saitou, a long-time contributor to the Pokémon TCG known for his clean lines and dynamic poses. Saitou’s depiction focuses on Torkoal’s characteristic smoky shell and its habit of expelling steam, utilizing a warm color palette that emphasizes the Pokémon's elemental typing. While this card is primarily valued by players for its utility in competitive Fire-type decks rather than for rarity, it is appreciated by collectors for its consistent art style and its role as a representative of the Lost Origin set's thematic focus on the ancient regions of the Pokémon world.
