Provenance

Where it came from

Skarmory-EX (80/146) was released as part of the XY base set in early 2014, marking the beginning of the sixth generation of the Pokémon Trading Card Game. This set was designed to introduce the Fairy type and emphasize the new 'Pokémon-EX' mechanic, which showcased powerful legendary or high-status Pokémon with elevated HP and special abilities, balanced by the risk of surrendering two prize cards when defeated.

The card features artwork by Toyste Beach, who utilized a metallic, high-contrast aesthetic consistent with the EX card design template of the era. By depicting Skarmory in a dynamic, full-body pose with holographic foil treatments, the design leaned into the 'ultra-rare' status of the card, aiming to appeal to both competitive players seeking defensive Steel-type utility and collectors drawn to the polished, modern look of the XY-era holos.
