XY Fullarts that should have been!

Hi everyone now that x and y series is coming to an end, and our beloved fullarts are changing format I thought it would be the perfect time to share the full art cards you would have wanted to see. (They can be pokemon, trainers etc.) Please share!

My personal choices and an obvious pick would be Suicune ex full art.
My less obvious picks would have to be a Pinsir ex, Kabutops ex and Moltres ex full art. And for a trainer I would have liked to see officer Jenny.

Regirock and regice, suicune, moltres… any uncompleted trio basically.

Oops how could I leave out poor leafeon, vaporeon and jolteon!

I would have loved to see other starters in full art, like the Sinnoh & Johto ones.

About trainers: Imakuni of course!

Hawlucha, especially given the prominence it had during the show.

Shuckle full art would have been sweet too :stuck_out_tongue:

Ditto on any uncompleted trio. The inner OCD in me is puzzled why they left the trios incomplete.

I would like Full Arts to feature more of the uncommon pokemon like Dusknoir. It’s one of my favorite ghost pokemon from 4th gen.

Hopefully now the 20th anniversary is over we may see non kanto based starters get some proper love!

Salamence & Mega Salamence! Waited for those only to get regular EX cards released as Promos :confused: Flygon FA would have been really cool too but I guess they didn’t do it as Flygon doesn’t have a mega form.

It was strange Latias became forgotten as Latios got various EX releases during the XY era and Latias didn’t have any (there is a modern Latias EX but it’s from the BW era). I kinda understand it as Latias & Latios have very similar megas but it continues the strange trend of not releasing a full group of Pokemon as EX / FAs such as Articuno & Zapdos having a FA on Generations, but Moltres didn’t.

Kabutops really should have had a full art.

Along with Arcanine.

I think both of them would have really bad ass artwork too.

Kanto Region Gym Trainers+ Elite Four!!! After seeing Misty and Brock I kinda stayed wanting more… I did like the Japanese ones XY-P but those weren’t full art.

And of course… Suicune :grin:

That would have been quality! I like how they re-did all 8 gym trainers, but a full art of each would have been so cool.

Oh and nice topic again @umbreon!

For me, it would have been cool to have a SR FA Mewtwo vs Mew like the original pokemon movie. Also, I think rather than a carbon copy reprint of older cards, it would be cool if they were made into full arts. Like the original movie promos, similar or exact artwork, but textured full art. Or the cd promos, same or very similar sugimori art, but textured full art.

Oh yes just to add on, I would like a Full Art on Nidoking since its one of my favorite gen 1 pokemon. NidoQueen would also be nice to have just to complete the pair.

That would definitely be ‘must have’ in my collection!

Yes, yes yes! I’m picturing those 8 bit images blown up to cover a card full art. All shiny and silver with the black graphics.

A second Regigigas… Haha, but I agree with basically any unfinished trio. Surprised Arcanine didn’t get one as well.

Hopefully the GX era allows for some more potential, since they are still pretty much full arts, just in a different way.
