i can't believe that fisherman and aether foundation employee AND hiker all got full arts for the set tho i was only expecting seven fullarts BUT THREE MORE YAAAAAY i'm so happy that full arts i didn't expect to be one(yet) but now that they are i REALLY hope that they come to english just like all the rest. fisherman certainly got some detail for his art which is great. the employees look really eat i want to put them next to all the people in that aether group. hiker is hot, that's all i have to say. CYNTHIA LOOKS AWESOME me and my friend were hoping for the new cynthia full art would have either lucario or garchomp as the partner on her card, BUT WHY NOT BOTH that made me so happy i can see lucario is shiny but is garchomp also shiny in the card i really hope so. guzma looks good as ever. ingo and emmet look so cool and so creepy with there mouths and the darkness that the picture is showing in between them looks so creepy i like it. im very happy that all four of the battle chatelaines sisters will all get full arts my favorite one out of the four is evelyn shes so cute, i can't wait to see nita full art when the set keeps updating, i REALLY want ALL of these full arts to come to english i want them for my binder i only collect full art supporters cause there the most unique in my opinion.
It's official, this set is incredible. The artwork for every single non-GX shiny is BEAUTIFUL, and while I can understand people not loving how the GXs look, I enjoy them. Pokemon has continuously stepped up since the beginning of the Sun & Moon sets and this is a great way to cap off 2 years of fun, beautiful, and inspired card design.
I was not expecting this amount of shiny versions of Pokemon getting leaked, god. But I love it! This is just the dream bling all on this news feed; shiny Zoroark-GX with shiny Zoruas, shiny baby Buzz, shiny Metagross-GX, shiny Noivern-GX, shiny Riolus and Lucarios meant for Garchomp decks, shiny Quagsire and his hella derpy face as well as shiny Wooper, shiny roadblock Sudowoodo, shiny Alolan Ninetales-GX (the worse one unfortunately), shiny Golisopod-GX, different versions of full-art Guzma and Cynthia, and both of them look absolutely sick, either just as good or better than the originals, gold rares of all the Tapu Legendaries, GOLD RARE TAPU LELE-GX MY GOOODDD!! Guys we need this in America. like, right now.

Just when you thought there was alot of secret rares / shiny cards, Pokemon unleashes an atomic bomb of secret rares / shiny cards. Cha ching $$$
Okay. That many secrets? That would seriously damage the pull ratio for the GX ultra shiny set IMO. Very low pulls if this happens. And the shiny basics and stage 1s that are not GXs will be the most common pulls. That is why i speculate that this upcoming set will either have a radiant collection as with Legendary Treasures and Generations or come in separate premium collection boxes. Its my own opinion on this of course.
A new story has just been posted to PokéBeach's front page: Most 'GX Ultra Shiny' Secret Rares! Posts you make after this point will immediately appear on the front page and vice versa. Discuss!
we know there will be a new rarity soon... but that many golden cards in one set is just disrespectful for collectors
Clearly, Pokemon has invested in some new printing technology. This will come to the US - too much of an investment for them not too. The question remains: how much for a booster? $6? $4?
