Provenance

Where it came from

The Starmie card from the Rising Rivals expansion was released in 2009 as part of the Pokémon Trading Card Game. This set was notable for introducing 'Pokémon SP,' which represented Pokémon belonging to specific trainers in the Sinnoh region, and for continuing the integration of cards featuring powerful, specialized mechanics like Pokémon LV.X.

The illustration for this card was crafted by Ken Sugimori, the primary character designer for the Pokémon franchise. In this artwork, Starmie is depicted in a dynamic pose that highlights its characteristic geometric structure and vibrant core, maintaining the clean, definitive aesthetic style that Sugimori has established for the series since its inception.
