Provenance

Where it came from

Prinplup, card number 55/236, was released as part of the Cosmic Eclipse expansion for the Pokémon Trading Card Game in November 2019. As the final set in the Sun & Moon series, Cosmic Eclipse served as a grand finale that emphasized the bond between Pokémon and their trainers, featuring a notable subset of character-focused illustrations.

The artwork for this specific card was rendered by the illustrator Shibuzoh. The design captures Prinplup in a vibrant, crystalline style consistent with the high-energy aesthetic of the late Sun & Moon era, focusing on the aquatic grace of the Pokémon while adhering to the technical standards required for the uncommon rarity tier.
