Yanmega

Yanmega's origin and design

Yanmega's species name suggests the golden ringed dragonfly, called oniyanma in Japanese, literally an ogre dragonfly, while its size and evolution method tie it to the ancient Meganeura genus of giant dragonfly relatives.

Yanmega across the eras

Yanmega debuted in 2008's Legends Awakened as a Rare Holo illustrated by Kent Kanetsuna, and Triumphant later gave it a Rare PRIME treatment from Noriko Hotta. In the Scarlet & Violet era, Destined Rivals gave it three Yanmega ex printings: a Double rare and Ultra Rare by takuyoa and a Special illustration rare by Tonji Matsuno.
