Provenance

Where it came from

The Bulbasaur card 001/132 from the Mega Evolution set represents a modern iteration within the long-running Pokémon Trading Card Game, which was first introduced by Media Factory in Japan in 1996. The card is designed to ground the player's deck in the series' roots, featuring the original starter Pokémon as a common entry point that facilitates gameplay mechanics centered on evolution and strategic deck building.

The visual design of this card follows the established aesthetic language of the modern era of the game, prioritizing clean layout and identifiable character art. It was created to provide accessibility for both veteran players and new collectors, functioning as a staple card that emphasizes the enduring appeal of the first-generation Pokémon design, which was originally conceptualized by Ken Sugimori and his team at Game Freak.
