100 Assorted Pokemon Cards with Foils!, Multicolor

Product Information

After this ridiculous start, it was revealed that Serperior can have the hidden ability known as “Contrary,” which makes things that normally lower its stats to raise them instead. Camerupt (and the next Pokémon on our list) continue the series’ fascination with turning absolutely innocent cute little animals into full-blown monsters capable of immense destruction. Thanks to nostalgia playing a huge factor, the holographic Charizard card is still in demand and has been reprinted a number of times, making this one of the most popular and best Pokémon cards of all time.

Mega Scizor is even scarier as its twin pincers morph into two giant scissors able to rip anything to shreds. Mega Evolutions kicked it up a notch, making this dragon even more powerful but making it look ridiculous in the process.Ash’s Charizard was featured heavily in the anime, its defiant attitude used as an example of what happens if you don’t have enough gym badges to earn the respect of your Pokémon.

This Pokémon has the highest possible Hit Points of the entire series, beating out legendaries and deities in its ability to stand its ground against almost every attack. WHile Dragonite hasn’t been featured in many games since, it managed to strike a cool pose in Pokémon Snap and assist players in Pokkén Tournament with a powerful Draco Meteor. First it started out as a prize in a shady casino lead by the evil Team Rocket, then its anime debut was banned when the surging across the screen caused over 700 Japanese people to experience seizure or seizure-like symptoms.Camerupt, on the other hand, touts not one, but two, volcanoes on their back, and is a sure sign that you’re in the wrong neighborhood, especially since, y’know, they live in volcanic craters.

As if they weren’t enough of a problem as is, Alolan Ninetales actually becomes an Ice/Fairy dual-type, and while that first half leaves it susceptible to quite a bit of damage, Fairy-types’ advantages throughout their introduction made it a threat. With all that in mind, here are ten of the best Pokémon cards from throughout the trading card game’s long history and many expansions. So not only can this regal reptilian laugh in the face of any opponent that tries to lower it stats, Serperior can also use powerful moves that normally weaken the user like Leaf Storm with reckless abandon. Household appliances that Rotom spirits into give it access to new attacks and even change its type.

It’s almost a shame Wailord is a Pokémon you can capture and make fight, since they so clearly just want to swim and be free and chill.

Roserade’s ambitions of winning an actual battle are a little suspect, even if I believe any decent trainer could make it work. This cataclysmic clash is one of the most riveting in the series with plenty of renditions both animated and in-game. It didn’t get to spend too much time in the spotlight though as it was altered heavily in Sun/Moon so that Talonflame had to be at full HP to use the ability, reducing Gale Wings to nothing more than a pretty gimmick.

The card has been banned from competitive play and the text featured on it is in an unreadable ancient language, so it’s purely a collector’s piece. Superb defense and only a few weaknesses means this monster can withstand plenty of attacks and with the ability to poison means it’ll outlast many opponents. This same process was used in Pokkén Tournament where it uses various tricks to keep the opponent guessing. Pokémon have mistaken its shell, and the tree on it, for homes, and they are so synonymous with the earth that ancient societies thought a giant one was underneath them, making land masses that formed the planet.
