These are peak for me!
Very fitting for this poll to be going on right as you joined then! Welcome to the forum!
last call to cast your vote on this!
i think next week will be something different for a break and we can do SwSh special arts (not including character arts). should be interesting to see how they breakdown
Maybe a non-fully evolved Pokemon? Would be cool to switch it up. Or maybe even a Pokemon that’s not necessarily popular.
I know exactly the guy for you
Trubbish?
y’all are weird
definitely interesting votes overall in this poll
-
3/5 top 5 (including #1 and #2) were modern special arts
-
Red Flash UR Special Art > Blue Shock UR SA
-
Shining is the most popular Old Back
-
Expedition is the most popular non-special art New Back
-
The Mewtwo PoV is over 3x more popular than the Charizard PoV for the VSTAR SARs (we’ll see if this holds true next week for the SwSh Special Art poll…)
Not surprised with number 1. It’s a very cool art. Number two was surprising with how new it is
I thought Shining would take it for sure. Nice spread of variety amongst the higher-ranked cards though and can’t be mad at the fantastic 151 illustrator being so high (although I didn’t expect it to get THAT high and beat Shining…).
I prefer the left-side version for the art being more centralised. The other one being off-centre Sugimori art for no real reason bugs me. It’s why I also don’t “get” Erika’s Venusaur.
i understand if it was an “either or” type of poll, but the fact everyone could vote on any art they like and so many people chose one, but not both is just baffling.
Mewtube winning was not on my bingo board
it was on mine, right in the middle.
Shining Mewtwo had the perfect amount of votes so technically it won.
Majorly disappointed in the opinions here on mewtwo. Also there is irony of the top 2 mewtwo cards being of mewtwo from behind when there is so much hate for shining charizard.
I do like 151 FA mewtwo but compared to the great arts it’s so mediocre. People like it because of the cityscape, the mewtwo himself is generic and isn’t stylized. And for shining to beat out GB or Masago is insane, absolutely insane. How. Most bland shining card there is, no style. At least even charizard is stylized.
I expect this outrage to be redeemed with a favorite muk poll asap. I look forward to that. We can do grimer after.
The pose works great for a lot of card illustrations, so it’s not about that. Yoshida’s barebones backgrounds in Neo 4 made it far less interesting than it could’ve been
The irony is that the background has never, not one single time, been the criticism. It’s always been the charizard’s behind card. I am pointing that out, not using that as the reason I personally find it overrated. His pose has nothing to do with why I stated earlier that I think it’s overrated.
All the shinings have bare backgrounds, but some are stylized and do something special, others are bland.
On another note, for the record I think all those cards you used are horrible except for VS and delta
