Product Information

There's something so pleasing about the nostalgic art on this Pokémon card that people just seemed to enjoy adding it to their collection - and looking at Pikachu’s happy little face, who wouldn’t?

To the player not thinking outside of the box a Pokémon like Smeargle might seem fairly ordinary. Its signature move Sketch can copy the last move the opponent used permanently which can lead to some devastating combinations when used effectively. Smeargle can use this to learn any move in the game, allowing it to get into some absolutely ridiculous shenanigans though it isn’t powerful enough to last more than a few turns.It’s easy to understand why any Pokémon would be jealous of the attention Pikachu gets, especially a ghost with a visage said to curse anyone who sees it. Mimikyu might as well be called the cosplay Pokémon with its desperate attempt to emulate Pikachu for acceptance. It seems that the plan worked, with people the world over falling in love with it. It isn’t a slouch in combat either, with its Disguise ability allowing it a free turn without taking any damage. This opens up a plethora of possibilities that competitive players are still wrestling with but it’s all wonderfully promising.

Pokemon EX Deoxys Gold Star Holo Rayquaza #107 1999 Pokemon Base Set 1st Edition Shadowless Holo Chansey #3 There are plenty of powerful Pokémon but this divine dragon gets bragging rights for being the absolute strongest. Already quite a contender in its regular form, Rayquaza can Mega Evolve from knowing a certain move, allowing it to still hold an item to boost it even further. This unbelieveable power and the ability to completely negate weather effects solidified Mega-Rayquaza as the first Pokémon considered “above Uber,” outclassing every other monster currently in existence.If you’re like me, I’m always looking for my next Pokemon card investment– that has the potential to grow in value. It would have been weird if Dragonite was not mentioned at all. Dragonite EX has a special ability called Pull Up, where you take 2 basic Pokemon from the discard pile to your hand when you play this Pokemon. One of the most iconic Pokémon and Pokémon cards of all time Surfing Pikachu first appeared in the early days of the TCG, and it's remained a fan-favourite Pokémon card since. A sword possessed by a ghost, Aegislash is said to be able to sense who is destined to be king like a Pokémon version of Excalibur. Aegislash is one of the only Pokémon that can cause a match to go on forever since it can learn both King’s Shield and Protect, which nullify all physical damage. It is also resistant or immune to 12 different types of Pokémon, making it a powerful wall even without those two moves. These factors have banned it from everything but the most high tier play, where it faces off against legendaries and other powerful Pokémon.

Out of all the Pokemon cards available, Shadow Lugia is the only one with an absurd damage points of 1,000. Its Shadow Storm may require four psychic energy cards to use, but once it has that, it’s unstoppable. The cover mascot for Pokémon Crystal, Suicune added some of the biggest story elements to one of the longest Pokémon games ever made. The chase after Suicune makes it feel like an adventure in itself as it races off several times before finding the player worthy of confrontation. It’s no slouch in combat being considered viable even now and one of the most hotly contested characters in Pokkén Tournament. Suicune has also seen plenty of animated appearances including an episode of Pokémon Generations dedicated to its origin. It may not be the most powerful legendary on this list but Suicune opened up the Pokémon games to a larger narrative structure than just “stop the bad guys from stealing the Pokémon” that saddled the releases before Crystal. Edgy Pokémon trainers, you need look no further than Absol. A quadruped in snow white fur, Absol’s defining feature is its curved horn jutting out from the side of its head and up over its face. Absol is a ridiculously fast Pokémon, which always made it incredibly viable in fights where I needed that extra edge. But what I most love about Absol is that it is widely considered a bad omen, because rumor has it that wherever it’s seen, disaster strikes.Wooloo is effectively the Galar region’s mascot. Hop’s Wooloo (and later Dubwool) are constant opponents players face in Sword and Shield and we see them quite literally all over the place; One of the early gyms has you corralling them. It helps that Wooloo is adorable, something that is not necessarily true of all Pokémon, but is integral to some of the very best of them. Wooloo and their pigtails are absolutely among the upper echelon of ‘em. First on the list is none other than Shadow Lugia which is a much improved version of this legendary Pokemon. One of the island guardians in Alola has become a powerful part of the meta-game almost overnight. This Pokémon is able to outspeed almost everything in Sun/Moon besides Mega Evolutions, making it a powerful sweeper. While its coverage isn’t that great, Tapu Koko’s dual-typing of Electric/Fairy allows it to fight a large amount of Pokémon and still do respectable damage.

Pokemon EX Holon Phantoms Holo Gyarados Gold Star #102 2000 Pokemon Base Set 2 Non-Holo Charizard ERROR #4 Something that always looked beautiful in a TCG collector’s folder are the Radiant Collection’s Full Art cards. These Pokémon cards were deliberately designed to have a different look from other cards, portraying Pokémon in a more cute and beautiful manner, instead of aiming to appear cool or strong. This made the collection popular among people who enjoyed the beauty contests within the Pokémon series of video games. A colourful outing for one of the greatest Pokémon cards Charizard has been one of the best Pokémon cards since the game first released - its rainbow-coloured variant makes it even more attractive for players. If you ever played Pokémon X and Y video games on 3DS, you might recognise this familiar and not-so-friendly face. Although it wouldn’t be fair to say Lysandre’s Trump Card is one of the most popular Pokémon cards, it definitely is one of the most well-known - infamous, almost. New to Pokémon cards? Take a look at the beginner-friendly Battle Academy gameAnother great Pokemon card is Mega Blastoise EX. It has a mega evolution rule, i.e. when one of your Pokemon mega evolves, you end your turn. Each starter from Sun/Moon seemed to get a ton of love whether it was the dapper Rowlet, dorky Popplio, or the adorable Litten. The other two didn’t have nearly as much on the line as the fire cat though, as Trainers were afraid that it would mark the return of the Fire/Fighting type-set that made up the fire starters for 3 generations of Pokémon games. Later it was revealed to have a Dark subtype instead, sporting a championship belt that drew comparisons to the Heel cliche from wrestling shows. The first evolution is the most popular though, complimented by the sheer amount of merchandise released for it. The Tag Team GX cards from the Sun & Moon: Team Up set feature famous duos of all varieties, from fairy magic duo Sylveon and Gardevoir to the unlikely water pairing of Wailord and Magikarp. But no duo will ever be as well-known, popular or well-matched as the Mewtwo and Mew Tag Team GX card. Take a look at some of the other trading card games worth your time
