Provenance

Where it came from

The Buizel card from the Great Encounters expansion was released by The Pokémon Company in 2008 as part of the Diamond & Pearl Series. This set served to introduce Pokémon originally discovered in the Sinnoh region, with the Great Encounters expansion focusing on legendary Pokémon and the evolution of gameplay mechanics that highlighted the specific strengths of Water-type creatures.

The artwork for this card was created by illustrator Kent Kanetsuna, whose minimalist style highlights the creature's agile, sea-weasel design. As a common card, it was produced in high volume to ensure accessibility for players building competitive or casual decks during the era, and it remains a recognizable piece of the mid-2000s generation of the trading card game.
