Provenance

Where it came from

The Tinkatuff card, numbered 217/193, was released in the 2023 Scarlet & Violet—Paldea Evolved expansion. This set introduced players and collectors to a diverse array of Pokémon from the Paldea region, focusing on the Gen IX generation first seen in the Nintendo Switch titles. As an Illustration Rare card, it signifies a departure from standard card design, prioritizing artistic storytelling over traditional action-oriented poses.

The illustration was created by artist sowsow, who is known for a distinctive, soft, and vibrant aesthetic. The artwork depicts the Tinkatuff in its natural, somewhat industrious habitat, capturing the Pokémon's lore-based obsession with forging its signature hammer. Upon release, the card was well-received by collectors for its whimsical characterization and the high-quality, frame-filling illustration that defines the Illustration Rare tier of the Scarlet & Violet era.
