Where it came from
Turtonator-GX first appeared in the Guardians Rising expansion, released internationally in May 2017. As a part of the Sun & Moon era of the Pokémon Trading Card Game, this card introduced the GX mechanic, which allowed for powerful once-per-game attacks. The artwork for the secret rare version, featuring a distinctive textured rainbow foil, was illustrated by 5ban Graphics, a prolific studio known for creating many of the hyper-stylized GX and V-series cards of that generation.
The design of this specific card emphasizes the jagged, explosive aesthetic of the Blast Turtle Pokémon. By utilizing a rainbow-refractive finish over the etched surface, the design team aimed to make the card a visual standout for collectors during the height of the Sun & Moon set releases. Upon its release, it was well-received by competitive players for its utility in fire-type decks, while the rare rainbow variant became a prized chase card among players and collectors alike.
