Provenance

Where it came from

The Treecko card, numbered 78/99, was released as part of the Arceus expansion for the Pokémon Trading Card Game in 2009. This set was notable for centering its narrative and mechanics around the Mythical Pokémon Arceus, introducing a variety of cards that celebrated the history of the Sinnoh region's legendary Pokémon and featuring unique art styles that deviated from standard character cards.

The illustration for this specific common-rarity Treecko was produced by Ken Sugimori, the primary character designer and art director for the Pokémon franchise. His approach for these base-level Pokémon cards typically focuses on clean, iconic poses that capture the creature's personality while remaining accessible to newer players, solidifying the card's role as a staple of the Arceus set's thematic cohesion.
