What are your unpopular opinions in pokemon?

I don’t like signed cards.

The artwork of Neo Destiny Shining Pokemon is bland.

Klefki is actually a hidden pre-evolution of a legendary and will play a key role in Generation 8!

Some of the 5ban artworks are actually pretty decent

Japanese boxes are actually the worst. Totally indistinguishable from any distance at all. The artwork is way too busy and look almost as bad as the god awful full arts (whoops, another unpopular opinion;). It’s like throwing all your cards in a shoebox. They become indistinguishable even if there are some treasures inside. Both Jpn boxes and FA’s never learned the lesson that less is more.

All the beer in the world couldn’t get me to think the Stormfront Charizard looks good.

The Collector Charizard will eventually be one of the most expensive and sought after cards in the hobby for collectors.

Don’t @ me.

Of all the WOTC Booster Boxes… Base Set has the most boring design.

@garyis2000 For modern, the opposite is true. English modern boxes are the same white background with an updated lower panel. If you watch my video where I showed some japanese boxes, each artwork is unique and entirely different then the previous set.

Another unpopular opinion, when people use the emotional fallacy “think about the little guy” you are all adults buying children’s cards. The “littlest guy” adult is spending way more compared to any kid, or majority of the world for that matter.

Of all the evolution families in gen 1, the Bulbasaur family is the coolest

Modern Japanese cards look more appealing than modern English cards.

Yu-Gi-Oh! has rarer and more interesting releases than Pokemon. It’s generally much more fun to collect.

Pokemon cards generally aren’t that rare and the market is saturated with the same cards.

Full Art Trainers, especially Tag Team Trainers, only exist because of a lack of actually interesting Pokemon in modern Genererations.
Also the female Trainers make me highly uncomfortable. I could never show any normal person outside the hobby a binder full of these lightly dressed teen girls and not feel awkward.

Charizard had no need to be in that series over Suicune. :wink: That is the true unforgiving travesty.
