Species collectors gather: favorite card of favorite species

[wisewailmer]

Title says it, what’s your favorite card of your favorite species?

Mine’s a rare case of sugimori being best

[Kijamon]

Raichu should always be drawn in bean format and there is no more bean than this one

[jaxlax21]

This will forever be my favorite card for Greninja.

[amcgl58]

Nostalgia driven favorite…

Artwise, probably my favorite. The HGSS #10 and Shining Raichu sometimes displace the alt art though, depends on my mood lol.

[pokecollectoramy]

Menacing cannon turtle

[Ratequaza]

For me it’s a tie between the very first and most recent card

[thurco]

I love this card so much

[decoypalmette]

I have 2 favorite species right now so:

Himeno, reverse holo. Trust me it’s truly beautiful when you have it in hand.

Then, tough choice for Celebi. I’ll go with Kizuki: a graceful happy little fairy dancing is too much for my heart.

[TheMarillFoundation]

It’s a tough choice! I’d pick this guy:

[wisewailmer]

I believe you, the emerald reverse holos are my favorite reverses

[pfm]

It’s gotta be one of these two

[Dyl]

It’s a constant tossup between TRR and Fossil. Today, I’ll choose TRR.

[LM23]

[c0ll3ct0r]

Almost by default, Arita held it together for this one and there’s no real competition besides Sandstorm.

[wisewailmer]

Emerald has so many ex cards I often forget which are there besides deoxys and milotic.

The altaria is one of my all time favorites, and the regi trio gets forgotten

[c0ll3ct0r]

Yes and yes. It’s a criminally underrated set and even more underrated ex section. I thought about posting a second favorite of a favorite from it.

[oorah]

Raichu was a tie with its Shining variant but at the end of the day I feel like this card gets so much right with the pose, the colors, background, and anatomy. Honorable mention to Light Vaporeon and Trainer Magazine Vaporeon as well.

[ReganRampage]

I have slowly been building a krabby and kingler collection this is my current favorite

[DarthEevee]

Three way tie for eevee, probably self explanatory

For piplup, the holo dp promo is just kind of iconic

[WailordEnthusiast]

A very hard question to answer for Wailord; it has lots of great art. Currently I think I’d go with these three since I’m a sucker for the old cosmos foil.
