Starting with my favorite modern one it’s clearly this one. Although the trainer class was only introduced in Gen VI, this gives me such Johto/Ecruteak City vibes:

Kanako Eo trainers are great too.

This card in particular, the flawlessness of it has always been a point of frustration for me. Why wasn’t she commissioned to do a bunch more cards, especially holos? She was always good but she peaked so hard with her HGSS Supporters.

Dang, everyone posted trainer cards I wanted to post.

I love Mr. Briney’s Compassion.

Mr. Briney and Peeko are great side characters in Gen 3. The card captures their relationship really well. I’m also a sucker for Ken Sugimori artwork.
