Provenance

Where it came from

The Bulbasaur card numbered 143/142 from the Stellar Crown set was released as an Illustration Rare, a classification introduced in the modern era of the Pokémon Trading Card Game to highlight expressive, full-art storytelling. This specific card was designed to showcase the creature in a lush, detailed habitat, moving away from traditional static poses in favor of immersive environmental art.

The Illustration Rare series is highly regarded among collectors for its focus on artistic vision, often featuring work by illustrators known for their distinctive, softer styles.
