Waiting for your favorite species to get a new card

Serperior has not seen a card since 2016 while Emboar and Samurott got cards in VV and BaS respectively…:slightly_frowning_face:

Now that the entirety of Sky Stream and Towering Perfection appears to have been disclosed, I once again have no more Starmie to buy. Freaking CLOYSTER got a card, including a cameo in a full art card. Cloyster is my new enemy.

“I wish for the Sword & Shield sets to bring me a new card depicting my favorite Pokémon, the final stage in a two-stage Water-type line from Kanto!”

Next up; Dewgong!

(Seriously though, Starmie has to get a Rapid Strike card, right? They can’t just do this whole Rapid Strike thing and then skip Starmie…)

Another 2019er here, no new Magnemite line cards since 2019. What I’m mildly annoyed about is every other 3 stage steel family (Aron, Beldum, Klink, Honedge) has gotten at least one print yet still no Magnemite line.

Hypno hasn’t since 2019 either and I really like that dude. Also Politoed

Having said that, Unown……remember them?
Could have done an amazing new alt art style with all of them in

There’s a new Hypno!

*waits in Spinda*

Silly me - completely forgot since I haven’t opened any and waiting for hype to die down.

Can’t say I’m impressed though - I think they need some ‘darker’ cards with him in and also some cameo of others in background.

Such a cool concept wasted IMO - then again the type of card I want would probably be banned.

Edit: I forgot about 2016 breakpoint hypno - that was cool.

Maybe I just want a full art with the new art style

Don’t disrespect Tanaka they illustrated the Fossil Slowpoke!

If you wanted a darker Hypno perhaps Dark Hypno from Ex Rockets Return may be to your liking?

Oh boy… This is awkward.

…urm…

…erm…

…ahemmmmm…Armaldo? yes Armaldo.

I’m just a Charmander simp. Can’t say I’m disappointed with the promo from battle styles though… :blush:

I can’t complain too much but i would love a shiny or ultra rare for muk! Alolan muk got a good amount of love and i love the fact that the tag team he got was with kanto muk but besides that the only ultra rare muk has is muk ex from ex dragon, so a muk V would really be cool! (But really, if one pokemon deserves a new card it’s either pichu or kadabra)

We’ve had Machops since the start…but never an ALT ART MACHOP!!!
I’ll wait until I die. And then some :wink:

Sandshrew is getting a card in S7 so I’m satisfied

Diglett/Dugtrio has had pretty consistent prints throughout the PTCG history, but it’d be nice if they got some bling in the modern era.

A chase tier rarity in the modern era (BREAK, EX, GX, V, etc). My mole bois got the holofoil love in the WOTC era, but have been relegated to pack filler for most of the modern era, with Dugtrio being an uncommon half of the time. I mean stuff like Excadrill EX and Pallossand GX existed. The true dream would have been getting the Alolan/Kanto Tag-Team GX treatment like Raichu or Muk. Dugtrio and Alolan Dugtrio GX; 6 heads in one card!

Or…just a semi-viable Kanto Dugtrio in the modern era. Alolan Dugtrio from Ultra Prism wasn’t great, but it was playable. I want something similar for my Kanto bois.

Although Victreebel just got a print in Battle Styles…I’d like to take a moment to recognize all the Pokemon who have lost their status of being at least a holo rare or better. Someday, Victreebel will get a full art!..right?

On another note, for as large as our sets have gotten in the last few years we really should get a new card of every Pokemon practically every year.

Starmie received a card in the new Fusion Arts set. I don’t love the art but it’s cool to have another holo Starmie!

But let us still observe a moment of silence for Pichu fans, who even in the context of a retrospective anniversary set couldn’t swing a Pichu card.

Just noticed there is a unique art Mantyke on the Vaporeon V Max Alt Art, next to the Mantine.

Togetic’s last card was in Unbroken Bonds… Togekiss (disgusting mutant) stole Togetic’s spots in Vivid Voltage. That fat lard took up FOUR SPOTS in VV…
