Provenance

Where it came from

The Wartortle card from the Scarlet & Violet—151 expansion was released in 2023 to commemorate the original 151 Pokémon species from the Kanto region. This specific set was designed to evoke nostalgia for long-time fans by focusing exclusively on the initial generation of creatures, featuring a distinct numbering system that mirrors the original Pokédex order rather than the traditional TCG set progression.

The artwork for this card, illustrated by Mitsuhiro Arita, continues a long tradition of collaborative design within the Pokémon Trading Card Game. Arita, a veteran artist who has contributed to the franchise since its inception in the late 1990s, utilized his signature clean, dynamic style to capture Wartortle in a water-based environment, emphasizing the character's evolutionary link to its predecessor, Squirtle, and its successor, Blastoise.
