Cards where Pokemon look malevolent or malicious? Post your favorites!

Isn’t this a super unpopular opinion? Lmao.
I love how Gyarados looks both terrifying and goofy, kinda disney Hades vibes for some reason.

Also shrimps are magnificent creatures.

Reminds me of a 90s goosebumps cover, slime dripping down the stairs

Maybe these two arent as subtle but they immediately came to mind

[Quuador]

The Skyridge Alakazam was the first that came to mind, which is already shared by @azulryu. Some other ones that come to mind, are:

And a lot of the Midnight Form Lycanroc also come to mind, although I’d say most are more aggressive than malicious/malevolent:

This one gives you the side-eye and thinks about attacking you, though:

Oh, and of course one I actually have to blur because it’s too graphical:

My thoughts on Masago’s Alakazam (and others in this thread):

Dark Slowking … his face tells everything

@mrbubbles

I am choosing this image of Slugma, but if you look at most of Slugma cards, they all look like it is trying to hypnotize you with its eyes.

That Slugma looks like a university student who has not slept in 3 days … easily it can be me …

Prime cards represents threateningly pokemon, Mew isn’t a cute and playful anymore, Steelix and Magnezone look like they gonna torture you.

This thing

This recent example always reminds me of Phase 3 dark troopers from Star Wars.

Muk definitely has a lot of arts fitting here but the op one is just perfect, i also thought before reading the full text that you had found or drawn your own version of that art crazy how similar bio-broly looks in that pic! I also agree that while muk is more malevolent grimer can be very much derpy but i did find one more grimer that imo fits here too

[mrbubbles]

Neat, I never saw it like that. This card always reminded me of Black Manta from Aquaman.

Cheers!

Kakuna is a pure evil

[mrbubbles]

Haha, it just looks like Kakuna is wearing glasses and tie and plotting something to take over the world like some evil corporation!

Cheers!
