E4's Favorite Dragonite TCG Card [Poll Closed]

Happy 2024 to everyone first and foremost!

As I promised, I am back with a new poll after the week off, and as mentioned here, I am going to try doing this differently than before

How this will work:

  • cards are listed in chronological order base on jp release (more or less)

  • each card will have a picture followed by its number, year released, and name as the option to vote for it.

  • vote for any card that you like.

  • the votes will be hidden until the poll will end on Sunday, and then I will share the results, counting down from the least selected to the most.

This simplifies everything and IMO gives a more true breakdown of which cards are liked by our active community more or less than others of that type (in this case, Dragonite)

Note: I apologize for the inconsistent images. I'm pulling these from a google search for the most part to have a relatively consistent size/H x W ratio. You're more than wecome to search these on your own if you'd like different images. There are some cards that are holo in different releases/languages which may skew some people's votes.

Good luck to your favorites doing well. I know mine probably wont :smiling_face_with_tear:

The results are in!!

You may want to include the holo variant here. Dragonite FB 018/DPt-P Holo Japanese Beat of the Frontier Rally Promo.

I voted 6 vintage and 1 mid era. Modern kinds sucks for Dragonite

yeah aside from the SA

Times like these I wish we had a dislike button

that would be like saying i should put the non-holo dark dragonite error instead of just some one i found off google (if i was including english images)

The Beat of the Frontier Rally Promo is the more desirable of the two artworks because it is holo and has the stamp.

-_- I guess we can agree to disagree.

i don’t disagree that it is more desirable, but if you need all of that just to vote for the artwork, then it’s hard to believe it is a favorite.

Always confused when I see such a positive reaction to the Team Rocket Returns Dark Dragonite art. Dragonite looks like it has hydrocephalus. Awful depiction.

How? Why? Wha?

its the coolest depiction of him. actually looks intimidating which is hard to achieve with such a derpy sweet boy

I would rebut that I think the moon in the background and OG holo have more to do with why people would favorably view that art. The Pokemon almost looks like a knock-off, bootleg version of Dragonite.

solid one for sure

could be for many, but not for me. its my favorite dnite artwork easily

You are on the wrong side of history.
