Provenance

Where it came from

Popplio 39/149 was released as part of the Sun & Moon base set in early 2017, serving as one of the introductory cards for the seventh generation of Pokémon. As the Water-type starter for the Alola region, this card was designed to help players transition into the new mechanics introduced in the Sun & Moon series, which marked a significant visual overhaul in card layout and design compared to the preceding XY era.

The illustration was rendered by artist Mizue, who has contributed numerous cards to the Pokémon Trading Card Game since the HeartGold & SoulSilver era. The design captures Popplio's playful, performance-oriented nature, emphasizing its aquatic aesthetic and approachable demeanor. As a common card, it was widely distributed in booster packs, functioning primarily as a foundational piece for players building Water-type decks during the early Sun & Moon competitive rotation.
