Provenance

Where it came from

The Poliwhirl card numbered 38/214 is part of the Unbroken Bonds expansion, released globally by The Pokémon Company International in May 2019. This set was notable for its heavy emphasis on Tag Team Pokémon-GX cards, which featured two characters working in tandem, though the set also maintained a foundational structure of standard uncommon cards to support the competitive ecosystem of the Trading Card Game during the Sun & Moon era.

The illustration for this specific Poliwhirl was created by artist Shibuzoh. The design captures the Pokémon mid-motion, maintaining the classic, clean aesthetic associated with the character's original design by Ken Sugimori while integrating it into the modern, high-contrast art style favored for the Sun & Moon series. As an uncommon card, it served as a functional piece for collectors and players alike, reflecting the enduring design legacy of the Generation I Pokémon within the ever-expanding game landscape.
