1 - Double Crisis (kawayoo)
2 - Sun & Moon (Yumi)

#BestOfDex 365/386 - Gardevoir

Another tough choice, though Gardevoir is probably less surprising than Kirlia. Kinda basic first choice, I know but it is a really pretty card!

1 - Paldean Fates (Kuroimori)
2 - SM Promo (Yuu Nishida)
3 - Ancient Origins (TOKIYA)

#BestOfDex 364/386 - Kirlia

Why are all of Kirlia's cards so good?? Genuinely, I don't even think my selection does it justice...

1 - Mega Evolution (satoma)
2 - EX Ruby & Sapphire (Atsuko Nishida)
3 - POP Series 7 (Masakazu Fukuda)

Companies are getting wayyy too comfortable in sharing everything about their product before it's released. Show us sneak peaks, sure, but let us actually experience the twists and surprises for ourselves...

#BestOfDex 363/386 - Ralts

1 - BREAKThrough (Aya Kusube)
2 - EX Sandstorm (Hajime Kusajima)
3 - Astral Radiance (Hataya)

[Dean @ArcticFosse]

#BestOfDex 362/386 - Jirachi

Jirachi has so many cool cards, I had to choose 4. So many others that missed out as well, really tough choice!

1 - XY Promo (Naoki Saito)
2 - SM Promo (Mizue)
3 = Team Up (HYOGONOSUKE)
3 = Stellar Crown (Kuroimori)

[Dean @ArcticFosse]

@ThatNerdMert Purposely bought this card as part of a bundle once, just because of the aurora in the background 😅

[Dean @ArcticFosse]

@BenjinaPlays My favourite will always be the Hidden Legends Ninetales. I love the eyes glaring at you from the background!

[Dean @ArcticFosse]

Poor Emboar man, Meganium and Feraligatr getting two cool new abilities and then there's just Emboar with Mold Breaker...

Not very often Sugimori gets on one of these lists but, for me, that spooky background really makes the card.
