Provenance

Where it came from

Tropical Wind was released in 2007 as part of the Diamond & Pearl Black Star Promos set, serving as a participation prize for competitors at the 2007 Pokémon World Championships. The card belongs to a long-standing tradition of 'Tropical' promotional cards awarded to players, judges, and staff at the annual world tournament, marking their participation in the high-stakes competitive circuit.

The card features artwork by illustrator Kouki Saitou, who is well-regarded for his vibrant and character-focused depictions in the trading card game. The design reflects the tropical, sun-drenched aesthetic of the World Championship venue, utilizing a unique card border and holographic pattern that distinguished the promo from standard set releases. It was received by the competitive community as a coveted piece of tournament history rather than a card intended for primary deck utility.
