Provenance

Where it came from

The Tauros card from the Platinum expansion was released in early 2009 by The Pokémon Company International. This set served as the inaugural entry in the Platinum Series, which was designed to bridge the gap between the Diamond & Pearl era and the introduction of Pokémon SP, a new mechanic featuring Pokémon trained by specific characters in the game's lore.

The artwork for this particular card was produced by Ken Sugimori, the primary character designer and art director for the Pokémon franchise. In keeping with the common rarity of this entry, the illustration features a clean, professional aesthetic characteristic of the era, focusing on the bull-like Pokémon's aggressive posture to reflect its traditional type identity within the Trading Card Game.
