Provenance

Where it came from

Turtwig, numbered 006/172, was released as part of the Pokémon Trading Card Game expansion titled Brilliant Stars, which debuted in early 2022. This set is notable for introducing the VSTAR mechanic and the Trainer Gallery subset, blending modern gameplay mechanics with a nostalgic aesthetic that reflects the legacy of the Diamond and Pearl generation. As a common card, it serves as a foundational piece of the set's ecosystem, representing the Grass-type starter Pokémon in its basic form.

The card features an illustration by artist kirisAki, who captures the Pokémon in a serene, natural environment typical of the species' design lore. The artwork emphasizes the creature's connection to the earth through its signature sapling-topped shell, rendered in a soft, approachable style that aligns with the broader art direction of the Brilliant Stars collection. The card was designed to support deck building for newer players while providing a recognizable, charming visual for long-time fans of the franchise.
