Provenance

Where it came from

The Kyurem ex card, numbered 157/86, was released as part of the Black & White series' Plasma Storm expansion, which was localized as Black Bolt in certain markets. It represents the transition period in the Pokémon Trading Card Game where the 'ex' mechanic was reintroduced to feature powerful, high-HP Pokémon with unique attacks and abilities that defined the competitive meta of that era.

The card features artwork by the prolific illustrator Eske Yoshinob, who is known for his dynamic, action-oriented style. His depiction of Kyurem emphasizes the creature's icy, legendary nature through sharp geometric lines and a high-contrast color palette, aiming to convey the immense power associated with the 'Ultra Rare' classification during the mid-2010s.
