5ban Graphics handles much of the gold-foil production and digital-art SARs across the Scarlet & Violet era
(However, I think Pikachu BLW is used more often, because it can attack earlier.) Pikachu HGSS03 10 more HP Flippy version of Thundurus 100 damage Four Energy in discard means more early Dynamotor Energy Metal is an uncommon attacking type, Resistance is a novelty Cant attack until the third turn, when you should normally have a Raichu If youre running Raichu for a budget deck, this one is cheaper Pikachu BLW 60 HP means its 1HKOd turn 1 by any attacker in CMT Personal Eelektrik as an attack Three Energy means it attacks by turn 2 80 damage is less than 100, but still the same as Tornadus/Thundurus Secret rares are usually pricey no matter how usable, but popular hobby games are always expensive if you want to be top notch Artwork Because five cards is too many to review for just the artwork, Im only doing Pikachu BLW for this
JACKDAW Not really much to look at here, BUT if you have a number of treasure, clues, food, etc lying around then you are going to bank a TON of cards hitting someone with this ship
These special cards have elaborate art of a Pokmon in a dramatic setting and when you tap and hold on to the card, you are taken into an amazing animation sequence showing the story behind the cards artwork
Not every card has to be better than another one, but if the strictly better one came out only nine months before, maybe the new, bad one shouldnt be printed
