Ho-oh and legendary beasts seem to be popular choice when people are discussing of amazing Neo Revelation cards. To me thereās been always one thing that tops all that, Crobat. Really simple drawing and you can never go wrong when adding moon in tcg card. Ever since Gold/Silver/Crystal games Iāve thought Crobat being cool evolution for Golbat.
Neo Destiny. What a wonderful set, surely one major pinnacle of wotc era. Additions provided by xeroryou and butchdawg32.
Dark Typhlosion. Always adored this one, Typhlosion looks absolutely great going berserk inside inferno.
Light Arcanine. Still wondering why they didnāt continue making Light cards after Neo Destiny. Doesnāt change the fact how pretty card Arcanine is, so far I havenāt figured out what is the meaning of those roses in the background but they sure fit perfectly in it.
Legendary Collection reverse holo Articuno. Really felt this collection needed at least one LC rev. holo and luckily my number 1 want was available recently.
Those graded neo cards are awesome man, I love the neo set. So nice to see them posted here in all their glory, brings me back to elementary school when G/S first came out and everyone was just in awe when the first person who got some of the neo cards brought them to school to trade⦠oh the crazy deals we would make just to get commons of the new gen of pokemon lol. Good times. And I love the Legendary Collection Articuno, that reverse holo is amazing, I think Iām gonna start grabbing up a few of them myself lol.
VS series isnāt too familiar to me even though I like Johto stuff a lot. Still had to buy one card recently because I think it looks too darn cute, Karenās Umbreon. Addition provided by @jkuo
Just Karenās Umbreon, only interesting VS holo imo. Gotta admid common cards have amazing stuff like Blaineās Typhlosion but that would take space from far more important additions Iām still looking for.
Been buying some e-series holos lately. Additions provided by @ljgenco12 and @hisoka107
Expedition Feraligatr looks great swimming around in itās natural habitat, also the last card I can remember pulling from booster packs as kid. Safe to say this will act as a reminder for me why itās never good idea abandoning Pokemon tcg for good.
Hail to the king! Nidoking has to be one of most underappreciated things in tcg, thereās just so much potential for EX etc. Been always liking the autumn themed background in this Aquapolis print.
Great looking Umbreon and the amount of all the details in artwork is just mindblowing. Top tier stuff from Aquapolis.
Hhhrr⦠even taking a glance at this gives me goosebumps, such a cool card. Ever since I saw the Mysterious Mountains pack I became instant fan of this Articuno.
Finest Beedrill card created so far. Digging the fact they included whole swarm of Beedrills in same picture, just the same way these guys always appear in anime etc.
First batch of ex-series cards coming in! Additions provided by @darkrai , goldstarcards, @hisoka107 and morgoth.
My crappy photographing skills donāt do justice for Team Aqua Team Magma Suicune ex, the card is ridiculously beautiful in person. Highlights of ADV era.
Couldnāt make a decision between these 2 so I purchased both, japanese 1st ed. Venusaur ex and Blastoise ex. They look really nice standing side by side.
English version of Rocketās Articuno ex looks already very nice, add ācorocoro Mewā holo layer and you have an amazing theme deck card. Wonderful!
Best ex card I can think of. The pose of Rocketās Mewtwo and artwork are so badass. Might be hard to see but this is also 1st ed. , definitely have to get labels fixed at some point.
Beautiful cards! The EX series is my favorite era, and the rarity of these cards in Japanese makes them even more special. Not to mention theyāre all 10sā¦
Absolutely. Wotc/e-series will be most popular stuff in long run but I still feel ex-series was most balanced when it comes to content. Great card design, nice variation of different holofoil types ( reverse EX Deoxys cards, Delta Species etc. ), ex cards and for some sets gold stars as finishing touch. Selection of ADV/PCG/PLAY promos is amazing too.
This was actually included in my last psa submission, original plan was to sell it but lately Iāve come to second thoughts. Deoxys ex looks really amazing blasting through the space, one of the nicest Deoxys prints so far. Also a PSA 10 card from this set is always positive thing, would be shame to let it go at this point.
Ho-oh exās artwork reminds me slightly of Pokemon Gold game covers, G/S/C was amazing stuff back in the days. Flames on background are nice too!
Wasnāt a big fan of Legend Maker after being introduced to it first time. Nowadays I think the idea behind set + overall artwork is great, there was 2 cards I absolutely had to get:
Arcanine ex, majestic as f*ck!
Mew ex is such a cutie pie. Pink Mew + green background fit really well together just like in english/japanese booster packs.
Few mutual words from Kingdra ex/Tyranitar ex: cool simple drawing of Pokemon and absolutely LOVE the colour combinations. Besides Crobat these 2 are definitely one of favourite Johto evolutions for me.
I was genuinely happy earlier this year when 2006 Battle Road Mew finally got first PSA 10 copy, even better after some bargaining with Potts the card was otw. here. Seems to be quite rare sight on market in mint condition ( at least for now ) and artwork is simply mindblowing. Mew ( who definitely needs to extinguish itself ) is just chilling out in the beach filled with palm trees.
Thanks! I had luck on my side while searching some low pop 10ās , digging the japanese ex stuff because they have very unique cards ( starter deck Blastoise/Venusaur and Silver Deck kit Rocketās Articuno ex on page 9 for example ).
Kingdra was sort of exception, I knew beforehand itās a nightmare trying to find gem mint worthy japanese Dragon Frontiers exās. English version does job perfectly, beautiful card anyways.
I graded the 1st ed Arcanine, Mew and Ho-oh. The Arcanine and mew got gem 10, but I was really but-hurt about the Ho-oh getting a 9, and I just cant find the prick anywhere in 1st ed. If anyones got One let it be known that I hate you. Those english old schools are really starting to appeal to me, and I think I gotta get them one day. You must have paid a fair bit for these bad bois because there awesome cards.
