Provenance

Where it came from

The Buizel card from the Pokémon Organized Play (POP) Series 9 set was released in 2009 as part of a promotional cycle distributed primarily through Pokémon League events and specialized retail blister packs. These sets were designed to provide accessible, limited-run cards to players in the competitive circuit, often featuring artwork that aligned with the then-current Diamond and Pearl generation of the video games.

The illustration for this card was created by Masakazu Fukuda, an artist recognized for a clean, dynamic style often seen on Water-type Pokémon during this era. Fukuda emphasized the aquatic agility of Buizel, rendering it in a playful, energetic pose that captured the creature's personality as depicted in the Sinnoh region, fitting the set's focus on bridging the gap between game mechanics and casual collecting.
