Sorry everyone else who thought of this but here’s the obvious one:

Not long ago on Discord we were talking about Sugimori original illustrations (like this one) and Sugimori stock art on generic background. No question that Sugimori is iconic either way, but his original illustrations like this are just great.

The flurry of fists and a specific childhood memory are why I keep a Machamp stood below my computer monitor. So cool!

For sure! My first WoTC card was actually a machamp which I still have, love that card so much

Wow that shiny Gyarados scene is epic! Makes you feel like you’re in the PokeMon world.

I agree with both of these. Shining gyarados looks awesome and grand party just looks amazingly special.
