People love looking at different versions of Pokemon, but trainer cards are not usually looked at as main stream Pokemon art
It broke games wide open with a single effect and came exclusively through Shonen Jump Championship prizes
You can only use each effect of "Cocatorium the Heavy Metal Avian" once per turn
Recently we have put a lot of effort into our art cards, which really encapsulate the environments of the Pokmon and their character. Creatures Inc employs over 240 freelance artists, and the aim is for no two Pokmon cards to ever look the same
However, the sheer number of these obscenely rare cards that are being introduced every set means that on the odd occasion I do hit something special, I dont think, Oh wow, maybe Ill finish the set! I think, Oh well, this is nice, but I might as well flog it. The barrier to completing a modern set of Pokmon is two hundred feet tall and made of cash
