Everyone has their own tastes and opinions. So today I’m just asking what one card out there appeals you you the most? There might be a story behind it, there might not be. For me the most appealing card for some reason is the japanese base set machamp. Absolutely love that card, the artwork and holo just stands out to me more than any other card. It’s almost got me thinking about starting a machamp collection just because of this card haha. Anyway look forward to hearing people’s thoughts and opinions. Interested to see what stands out to everyone else here. Thanks all! Drewy 😊 ---

Rayquaza! (what a surprise…lol) My favorite card of his is the full art EX from Dragons exalted/Dragon Blade. The color scheme and artwork cannot be matched 😮 I also love how almost every card of his has a “dark” and “evil” vibe to it. And also the fact that he is a huge green dragon snake helps as well. 😉 ---

Great to hear your opinion Potts! I take it you have quite a collection of him haha ---

The iconic Square Cut “No Stage” Error Blastoise Mainly because: 1. It’s from the inaugural base set and very MINT. 2. It is a popular character which has been a force for players and collectors alike from the very beginning. 3. Many collectors have variations of this card (ie; the square cut, the error version, deck trainer promo, shadowless/1st Edition/unlimited) etc. BUT… 1. There is only ONE like this in the world. All those things makes this card appeal to me:) ---

So many good reasons mate! Blastoise has always been up the top of my favourites! To see such a card would be a treat! Good to see someone put so much thought and meaning Into a card. It’s so much more than just collecting! 😊 ---

Haven’t got one favourite, I LOVE the base set, in particular the shadowless and even more 1st edition cards. Even the commons and uncommons have got that magical feel ---

there is no way i can boil it down to one card. art work wise my favourite set would probably be the expedition base set. ---

If I had to pick just one it would be Here Comes Team Rocket!, but I also enjoy cards like this: [![](https://farm9.staticflickr.com/8635/15921426114_51358271aa.jpg)](https://flic.kr/p/qfVthN) [Wailord ex](https://flic.kr/p/qfVthN) by [pokephd](https://www.flickr.com/people/127575297@N08/), on Flickr ---

It’s rare to find a decent trainer card that has flare and awesome artwork, This card encompasses both those characteristics and therefore the most appealing card to me. ![](http://i772.photobucket.com/albums/yy6/XGENETRIX/PSA%20GRADED%20Collection/20150107_194107_zps66dfc0ee.jpg) ---

arhh… this question is too hard… For me it has to be: 1. immensely rare, almost one of a kind…that most people wouldn’t be able to own. 2. have an immensely aesthetic and pleasing artwork 3. Be Bad-ass… I don’t know if I have something that ticks all the boxes yet… card wise… but I have something pokemon based… there is only 2 graded globally and I own 1, but I don’t want to show yet 😆 ---

@drewcastle @1by1collector I will post a collection thread eventually… just when I am ready lol… rarity doesn’t always have to be majorly expensive… the only hint I will give it is pokemon n64 based. ---

I think for me personally it’s the ex Team Rocket Returns gold stars. I feel like gold stars were great ultra rares. The Pokemon was shiny, and the card wasn’t horribly over designed. Almost just a really nice holo card. The TRR ones stand out for me in particular, as the card choice deviated away from you typical legendary Pokemon you’d usually see as ultra rares. It was a lot more reminiscent of the games, where any random Pokemon could be shiny, regardless of rarity. That, and Mudkip is a major qt. ---

I have to say a tie… between Base set Charizard and McDonald’s sunset Mew. The Mew is just beautiful. One of the best card artworks of all time and best illustration of Mew (IMO). It also has that same incredibly elusive feel like Mew in the video games, since it was never released in other countries and was very limited time promo. The Charizard represents the start of the entire Pokemon series to me. I think it also appeals to Pokemon fans of all generations. It was the first “big deal” pokemon card and everybody wanted it or still does. ---

It was the first “big deal” pokemon card and everybody wanted it or still does. Pretty much me in a nutshell with all base set holos! Especially machamp, mewtwo and gyarados!
