Provenance

Where it came from

Pelipper (38/149) was released in 2017 as part of the Sun & Moon base set, which marked the debut of the seventh generation of the Pokémon Trading Card Game. This set introduced mechanics such as Pokémon-GX and revitalized the card design to reflect the aesthetics of the Alola region, transitioning the game's visual style to match the Nintendo 3DS titles of the same era.

The artwork for this card was created by illustrator Mitsuhiro Arita, one of the most prolific and recognized artists in the TCG's history. Arita utilized a clean, dynamic style intended to capture Pelipper's role as a coastal bird Pokémon, focusing on its iconic beak and flight posture. As an uncommon card, it served as a functional staple for players looking to incorporate Water-type utility into their decks during the early Sun & Moon competitive circuit.
