Pokemon Cards have evolved drastically since Base Set, and the latest set Temporal Forces is proof of that. Bringing Pokemon Card collectors new Special Art Rares of Gouging Fire ex, Iron Crown ex, and Walking Wake just to name a few - safe to say, if you're opening Temporal Forces, there’s no shortage of cards to fill your binder.
But who brings these cards to life? It seems The Pokemon Company have been busy, because so far 21 new artists have been commissioned to illustrate these new Pokemon cards - a mix of free-lance artists, all the way to anime industry legends. It’s no wonder these Pokemon Cards are some of the best you’ll ever find, thanks to the extremely talented Pokemon Illustrators behind them!

This is how all card opening videos should be.

@matttran7161 4 ай бұрын

Finally! Somebody is actually talking about the ART and acknowledging how we have never ever EVER had it this good ever. Such a wonderful time to be a collector. For my newcomer to watch, I recommend Rika who drew the 151 Dragonair. Or Haru Akasaka who drew the OF Gloom.

@TheGeniemunGenie 4 ай бұрын

This was super refreshing to watch. Most people these days when they open packs just throw away the commons and uncommons without taking a closer look at potentially beautiful cards with a gorgeous artwork. The video was entertaining and very educational, can't wait for the next one! 😊

@Shadow72eapers 4 ай бұрын

This is such a wildly good look into who these artists are and their art styles, something most don't think to look into that much. Fantastic video JLuv!

@seegould 4 ай бұрын

This is so dope. Thanks for diving into these profiles. It's refreshing to see common cards highlighted instead of the rarest card of the set.

Your love for the hobby and effort into editing definitely shows in these types of videos.

Great video! Learned about a ton of artists I've never seen before, excited to see more artists coming to work on new sets. I've been loving the artwork from Cona Nitanda, especially Bianca's Sincerity from Cyber Judge. Something about light pastel watercolors, the cozy atmosphere, the connection to Bianca and Musharna, absolutely one of my favorite cards, AND I PULLED IT

@okJLUV 3 ай бұрын

Besides the competitive aspects. I fell in love with the tcg because of the artists. Kouki Saito, Miki Tanaka, Sui, Atsuko Nishida, 0313, and HYOGONOSUKE are just a few of my favorites. I get a glimpse of their personalities through their art

@okJLUV 4 ай бұрын

you’re one of the first people ive heard list 0313 as one of their favourites! it’s always a nice surprise when they get a new card, sometimes it can feel really far and few between. Kouki Saitou is still my all time favourite, you’ve got great taste !

Unlike a certain western poketuber with foul mouth who flings common cards into the background during packs opening.🙄 Hope you will make this kind of video regularly.
