Provenance

Where it came from

Tulip 259/182 was released in the 2023 Pokémon Trading Card Game expansion Paradox Rift. The card features the character Tulip, a high-ranking Gym Leader from the Paldea region introduced in the video games Pokémon Scarlet and Violet. In the game, she is known as a makeup artist and influencer, a personality reflected in the card's glamorous visual presentation.

The Special Illustration Rare version was illustrated by artist Kinu Nishimura, a long-time contributor to Capcom and industry veteran. Nishimura’s design emphasizes the character's professional aesthetic and elegance, utilizing a distinctively soft, painterly style that differs from the standard art found in the set. Upon release, this card was highly sought after by collectors due to the character's popularity and the refined nature of the artwork.
