last, but certainly not least (imo), koraidon is up.

i think out of all of the pokemon, this one has the least amount of entrees that i dislike. maybe it’s because i’m so fond of the gen 9 legendaries, area zero/paradox pokemon, etc…, but i think also it is just such an aesthetic design. i voted for nearly all of them.

these two in particular are styles i would love to see more of in the TCG.

the first one for the shading + art style, and the second for the composition + art style.

Maybe its because I dont really know the details of Miraidon or Im not used to seeing it so I cant tell how technically correct it is, but goodness this one has so many that give a variety of different feelings and moods. Most of them look great and I found myself voting for more than any other pokemon so far.

Maybe, maybe.

This one reminds me of Kouki Saitou a lot

This one to me is a direct reference to the lion king song lol

After the toxtricity speed bump back in gold, awesome style and variety with them

[azulryu]

I will admit. I like a lot of these. But there were only 3 or 4 that wowed me so I tried to focus on those.

[Rattlesnake]

Alot of solid arts here but the jungle rain scenes stand out for me.

last pokemon poll ends today!

after this, i’ll tidy up the results and find a way to present them in the mean time, but the actual final round with all of the top from each pokemon wont happen until we find out which artworks were removed and vote on the new ones.
