I took some photos of my pikachu just for reference
Japanese Close up
English Close up
The last photo may seem blurry but if you check out the first 2 phots (the pikachu in those) it looks the same (bit blurry?) judge for yourself

The textures on the English card are so spaced out compared to the Japanese one–makes the English one look kinda clunky 
Considering the changes made to Scarlet & Violet’s now unified card design, it’s probably more appropriate to compare them than SWSH era cards

can you take photos under the same lighting conditions and zoom in closer? (focus on a quarter of the card if possible) thank you
the lightning and the angle of the photos changes how they look drastically
They’re not my photos
oops I thought they were, I feel like there will be tons of comparison photos/videos really really soon
The new textures look better than SWSH imo, but still a noticeable difference between Japanese and English. Nice to see some change though
