Provenance

Where it came from

Released in 2000 as part of the Neo Genesis expansion, this card introduced the second evolution stage of Chikorita, one of the three starter Pokémon from the Johto region. The set was highly anticipated by the global community as it marked the transition from the base generation of Pokémon to the new experiences featured in the Gold and Silver video games, bringing the total number of known creatures to 251.

The card features artwork by Naoyo Kimura, who was a prominent illustrator during the early years of the Pokémon Trading Card Game. Kimura’s design aesthetic for this piece emphasizes a soft, naturalistic style, depicting Bayleef in a serene pose that highlights the organic, plant-based characteristics of the species. As an uncommon card, it served as a reliable staple for players looking to advance their grass-type strategies during the early Neo-era competitive landscape.
