Provenance

Where it came from

Chinchou card 71/236 was released in the Cosmic Eclipse expansion, which debuted in late 2019 as the final main set of the Sun & Moon series. The set was designed to celebrate the breadth of the Alola region and beyond, often featuring 'Tag Team' combinations and artwork that highlighted the daily lives of Pokémon in their natural habitats. This common-rarity card fits into the broader thematic goal of the set, which aimed to provide a definitive closing chapter for the seventh generation of the trading card game.

The illustration for this card was created by artist Shiburingaru, known for a soft, painterly aesthetic that emphasizes atmosphere. The design captures Chinchou submerged in a tranquil, glowing underwater scene, leaning into the creature's bioluminescent nature. As a common card, it was distributed widely in booster packs and theme decks, serving as a functional piece for players building Lightning-type decks while simultaneously acting as a collectible example of the artistic consistency maintained throughout the Sun & Moon era.
