When a server sends a copy of SSL certificate, the connection is encrypted?

have anyone know if the SSL certificate copy it's send encrypted to the client or decrypted? Do the certificate travel in plaintext at the beginning? Without a trustStore key on the client side is hard to believe that is encrypted. Thanks for the answers.

With TLS 1.2 and lower the certificate is send in plain. With TLS 1.3 it is already encrypted.
