How this works:
There will be 3 sections of Voting
Design: the concept aesthetic overall
- the “Design” poll is just to get a rough count of participants. PLEASE make sure to vote in this.
Cards: individual cards
- cards are listed in chronological order based on first release
- unless it makes sense otherwise to group them with other cards released at a different time.
cards within a similar release will be grouped together, followed by an option for each individually
- vote for any card that you like.
Sets
- This will be grouped based on my discretion. There may be cards that were not actually released in the same set that end up grouped together (i.e.: Pokemon V which were released in different ways, but are all still the same kind of style)
- Sets will be based on a number ranking between 1 (bad) and 5 (great)
- The option to vote on each trio will be grouped with cards in order to reduce the size of this post.
Note: there may be some cards grouped since they are in a set, but without a set rating poll because it is not a trio
Additionally, for whatever reason, many cards with similar rarities/vibes (such as SM PreRelease Promos or GX/Vs) were released across completely different sets.
- Because of this, there may be some “trios” you have in a binder together that are not an option here.
The polls will automatically close on Sunday at 12PM Pacific Time. I will edit this post and title to count down from least to most voted, and we will see which cards are E4’s Favorite.
Most of these images are pulled from quick google searches, eBay, or Bulbapedia if they had a large enough file. If you'd like me to replace an image, you're welcome to post it in the comments.

Note: because this illustration was never printed on a card, it will not be counted in the results archive , but I thought it would be fun to see how well it would do if it was a real card for the sake of this poll.

Since these all have the same ability and attack (name depends on energy type), there clearly was some sort of intention to make these a trio of cards available to players despite them not releasing at the same time
