Set Lore
This Prerelease Arcanine is a special stamped version of Arcanine from Black & White—Next Destinies, a set released in English on February 8, 2012, giving it that event-only collector appeal tied to the BW era.
Card History
The card’s artwork is by Mitsuhiro Arita, one of the original pillars of Pokémon TCG illustration who has been contributing art since the game’s inception, which gives this promo extra prestige for longtime collectors.
In-Game
Its flavor text lifts directly from Arcanine’s Pokédex history in Diamond, Pearl, Platinum, Black, White, Brilliant Diamond, and Shining Pearl, emphasizing the same proud and regal image that has defined Arcanine across generations.
Cultural Impact
Arcanine has long been framed in the games as a legendary, majestic canine inspired by East Asian folklore, so a Prerelease promo like this feels especially fitting for a Pokémon already treated like a mythic icon.
Artist
Collectors chasing illustrator history love cards like this because Arita is not just a Pokémon artist but an official freelance illustrator whose client list includes both Pokémon Company and Creatures Inc., reinforcing how central his work is to the brand’s visual identity.
