What card do you appreciate today?

[ascendedbidoof]

Wow, this Crobat is older than some people on here. Assuming you caught it when you were a kid

[DarthEevee]

Yeah circa 2004

[ascendedbidoof]

Dang! Your Crobat can go out to the bars

[DarthEevee]

I wasn’t always careful about moving mons from fire red up and replayed it several times, this is among the oldest mons in “real” time, but all pre gen 6 mons have the date met as the date you moved them up sadly so it says 2011

[Parallax]

Wait, the second? What was the first?

[Vertemes]

If you do show the results in the art thread!

[Vertemes]

Bruh

You’re not the only person on the forum who is under 21. This wasn’t a callout

By the way, love the thread idea. This will be fun to check everyday

[Vertemes]

I didn’t mean it like that lol.

Took me a while to come up with a idea for a thread.

@eeveeteam

Going to go with this one. I had an English and a Japanese one come through my hands while middle manning. Got a little more appreciation for it seeing it in person.

I had the same with the Mewtwo GS. Recently saw that card in person when I was middlemanning it for someone, and the dark purple background really pops on that card.

As for a card I (re)appreciate today (or yesterday, to be more precise): the Pikachu from the July 18th, 2011 Teach/Tryout Set:

I yesterday posted a comment regarding a new discovery for one of the other Teach/Tryout Sets, and every time I see this happy Pikachu artwork, it makes me smile.

Greetz,

A hungry snorlax

And a modern hungry snorlax that captures the vibe for 1/800th the price!

Love this card

[scoots89]

Great thread topic, here’s my submission:

I love Kusube’s art style. Girafarig is one of my favorite Pokemon from Generation 2. I’m hoping to pick up a reverse holo copy of the card soon.

[Gstiess]

Great thread. Got some non-holo cards for my binders in today and really enjoy this Duskull (in general almost all Harada cards from the early ex era are incredible):

[Chovi]

I feel I’ll need a Venusaur and is a toss up between this and Dark Venusaur. I’ll probably pick up one of these in an 8

[pobennington]

People seem to either love or hate the art, but idc this is the most metal steelix (no pun) I’ve ever seen

[ddk]

My fav depiction of Steelix. The black/white and red color scheme reminds me a lot of Persona 5. People seem to love that game’s art style but this card was doing it over a decade prior.
