Provenance

Where it came from

Zarude was introduced to the Pokémon Trading Card Game as part of the Shining Fates expansion, released in early 2021. This set was designed as a special subset of the Sword & Shield series, primarily focused on celebrating the aesthetic of shiny Pokémon. The Zarude card, numbered 16/72, features the Mythical Pokémon introduced in the eighth generation, specifically timed to coincide with the international release of the movie Pokémon the Movie: Secrets of the Jungle.

The card was illustrated by Kouki Saitou, a long-time contributor to the Pokémon TCG known for a clean, dynamic style that emphasizes the character's movement and fierce personality. In the context of the game's mechanics, this grass-type card functions as a rare-tier inclusion within the set's unique numbering system, which diverged from standard expansions. It was generally well-received by players and collectors who sought to complete the Shining Fates set, as it provided an accessible way to include the popular new Mythical Pokémon in their portfolios.
