Provenance

Where it came from

Released in 2004 as part of the EX FireRed & LeafGreen expansion for the Pokémon Trading Card Game, this card serves as a thematic tribute to the original Kanto starter Pokémon. The set was designed to coincide with the release of the eponymous Game Boy Advance titles, aiming to recreate the nostalgia of the original 1996 video games for a new generation of players while updating the mechanical framework of the card game.

The illustration for this card was created by artist Atsuko Nishida, a pivotal designer in the Pokémon franchise who is also credited with the original visual design of Pikachu. Nishida utilized her signature soft, approachable style to depict Bulbasaur in a naturalistic setting, emphasizing the creature's organic, bulb-like features. The card was well-received by collectors and players alike for its role in bridging the gap between the modern EX-series mechanics and the iconic aesthetics of the early Pokémon era.
