While some purists may gawk at the idea of slandering an original card’s art by trying to paint over and around it, the results for those that are truly great speak for themselves. Each of the cards on this list is always painted with their original pokémon and backgrounds serving as the “canvas” so to speak. SumiPaints builds off of their original imagery, giving us the impression that they have peeled back the layer of stats and rules in order to reveal a larger picture that has always existed beneath the surface. This Vulpix is captured just outside of a forest in what appears to be a blossoming meadow. Possibly, Veridian Forest of Gen I fa

This coupled with the dazzling arctic setting complete with a muted aurora borealis and great star work. This card felt like one that was especially loved by the artist and passion begets work worth hav
This finishing blow will take some time to set up, even with energy search cards, however, the Grass-typing of this Ultra Beast duo grants trainers some great ways to build up energy relatively quickly. Pokemon cards of this type sometimes carry abilities that can attach energy cards from one’s deck, hand, or discard pile to an ally with little to no effort, so a Grass deck themed around this should be able to bring out Pheromosa & Buzzwole’s true potent

Getting a bit lucky and doing this multiple turns in a row can ravage any foe. Though, if luck is not something a trainer wants to rely on, this shellfish Pokemon’s Hydrocannon attack can blow adversaries out of the water with a no-downside maximum damage of 70 HP. For high and consistent damage, versatility, as well as longevity, this Blastoise is the Dark Pokemon with the most promise of doom for a player’s enem

Trevenant belongs to the XY expansion and is a stage 1 pokémon with 110 HP. Trevenant has two very useful abilities by the names of Forest Curse and Tree Slam. While Forest Curse prohibits the opponent from playing any Item Cards as long as Trevenant is the player’s active pokémon, Tree Slam deals a damage of 60 while additionally dealing 20 damage to two benched pokémon of the oppon
The final beautiful card to be displayed is arguably the most beautiful one of the set. It is the light and how it is manipulated in the painting that makes this card particularly exceptional. Everything blends gorgeously and in such deep colors, it makes one feel as if the world of Pokémon is a reachable place. Espeon is truly a Pokémon of the morn

On the next turn, if one attached the 3 new energy cards to this duo, the trainer can unpack Tag Bolt GX for huge damage against the foe’s Active pokemon as well as one of their Benched monst
However, what makes this move so powerful is an interesting fact, whereby Wizards of The Coast, the proprietors of Pokémon cards in America, did not issue an errata concerning a mistranslation with regards to this power. While this power was originally supposed to be used only when Slowking is the active pokémon slot, owing to the mistranslation, multiple Slowking’s saw an introduction into the play reducing the opponent’s chances of using a Trainer Card monumentally. Strangely enough, this card was never ban
