Pretty interesting article on how Pokémon cards are designed

Just came across this article today, and thought it was worth a share here: How New Pokémon Cards Are Made.

Summary of the three steps:

  1. Pick the Pokémon that are being part of this set (based on the current games at first and personal preference for the rest).
  2. Make the illustrations
  3. Simultaneously with step 2: full-time play-testing (where they use real cards with stickers of the new WIP cards on top of it).

I never played the game myself, but I think some of you wouldn’t mind a full-time job as play-tester? :wink:

Ohh, you can come join the conversation in this thread @quuador :

And to answer your question, hell yes I would play test for free :laughing: Getting paid to do it would be amazing!

Whoops… Somehow completely missed that thread… :sweat: Which is rather weird, since I read all new posts… :confounded: .

@smpratte Could you merge my thread with the existing one perhaps?
