Top 10 Pokemon TCG Art

[@Staruo356]

“Discard up to 60 cards from the top of your opponent’s deck” GG

[@Compucles]

The only way you lose is if you already used a Supporter card to draw the JWittz card, and then either your opponent wins his/her last prize card on his/her very next turn or you have no cards left in your own deck on your next turn.

[@funics8522]

@@Compucles OP card right there

[@profblack]

Pretty balanced.

[@Kukkedid]

A pretty trash card

[@regirayquaza]

That's overkill! All you need is 47 off the top!

[@vertigoawaypls]

Me: "Haha that's a really funny card at the intro." Me: Card: *Discard up to 60 cards from the top of your opponent's deck.* Me: "oh."

[@unknownscientist1530]

"But before we end up in PRISON!" I love this beyond reason.

[@TheNorth15]

Personally I think Pokemon TCG has the best artwork out of any TCG. They feel like paintings that have some story or vast habitat behind the Pokemon who's just minding there own business, grazing across the plains or oceans or exploring a bustling city.

[@konohahurricane07]

MTG is clearly the best. They look like actual paintings.

[@ozyxwvut5413]

oh my gosh the intro had me in t e a r s

[@tired_teetee5816]

*Cough* Why Is Pokemon Showing Some Fanservice?! *Cough Cough*

[@PsychoDiesel48]

yo . . . . the supporters in that set and beyond are drop dead GORGEOUS!!!

[@shrektheogre4349]

Should’ve worn a Bob Ross wig for the intro 0/10

[@InfamousArmstrong]

Shrek The Ogre +1 Bob ross

[@hans7409]

In that case, he should have painted the firts Pokémon professors.

[@TheCartoonGamer8000]

I remember I'd just stare at that Tomokazu Slowpoke card and while a bit odd-looking, I loved how it looked and just appreciated the little details found in it, especially the little apples. Also, it knows Psyshock before it was an actual move! Oh, and Misty's Wrath. That one is hardcore.

[@SethKasso]

Well this is a welcomed surprise. Seeing this notification caused me to genuinely smile

[@anderralph]

Anyone else noticed the fact that the paint tubes are closed while he’s painting lol

[@JoDaEpicGuy]

That JWittz card is singlehandedly the best card ever created, I don't know why it was removed from the original base set.

[@gabgab3084]

I love Kanako Eo’s art style ☺️

[@Takoto]

I had no idea that Giovanni alternate art existed - it's incredible, I wish I could get that. I think my favourite card illustrations are Kawayoo's Umbreon (XY Promo), TOKIYA's Gardevoir from Ancient Origins, and Tomokazu Komiya's Chansey (I think it's a Japan exclusive).

[@abeahmed2581]

Jwittz is the vsauce of the pokemon community, you just want to meme him so bad

[@bowldawg4394]

Im suprised he hasnt yet

[@TsukiCondor]

I really wish we had an official pokemon TCG art book in America....They do..... *In Japan* 🇯🇵

[@blackwater9311]

Yes! The Jungle set was one of my favorite art styles. :D Also quite a bit from the old Gym Heroes/Leaders sets.

[@novastarguild2892]

I really miss Prof-It man I wish Mr. J would return to that beloved series.

[@bluecretan7441]

One of my first cards was the ancient Mew card in a special glass case that my dad gave to me. I later learned that they're pretty much worthless but when I got it it was the coolest thing, and I still love that card

[@TheKawaiifan]

My personal favorite is Dark Hypno from the Team Rocket set. The ominous colors, the use of the pendulum and the trippy background, it’s such a gorgeous card and I love it~

[@djquinn4825]

3:38 Oof, I'm not really into the TCG, but I wouldn't mind having that Delinquent card

[@kristianbrandt3012]

My favorite sets were always Jungle and Fossil. The reason is that, to my knowledge, they contained the largest number of cards by Kagemaru Himeno. I just love the way she uses warm colours to create a unique take on Pokémon.

[@ArcherOfHoshido]

"Discard up to 60 cards from your opponent's deck"

[@husseinxh]

sui is definitely my favorite illustrator! their art is so adorable i love it

[@kirbyofthestarsfan]

I absolutely adored this top 10 :D The Tepig evolution line will always be my favorite tbh ;-; Also fun fact: the crystal set in the #2 spot seem to be based partially on the Nazca lines from Perú (which doubles as the inspiration to Sigilyph's design) I totally love your vids man, that intro killed me xD

[@joeywoolcox6149]

My favorite thing about this is that you featured cards from the entirety of the games history. I feel like it’s easy to fall into the “the old stuff is the best and new stuff is lame” kind of trap that nostalgia can lead to. The fact that you also talked about gx cards, full art trainers, AND wizards of the coast cards just really made me appreciate your opinion and think about the art of the cards in a new way

[@jcace13]

Get you a girl with a full Pokemon Card collection 👍🏻

[@monkeykingw]

The wide of array of different artstyles will always be the reason why Pokemon cards are my favorite to collect.

[@megaupsilon]

I absolutely love the Japanese exclusive Giovanni's Scheme. The artwork on it was amazing and it's great to see it on this list. I just really wish we would've been able to see it come to the states :')

[@dub2509]

I miss the more frequent videos, but I'm glad you come around every now and then bud, thank you for the video :)

[@danielbeesley1326]

I absolutely love the Tepig line of cards. Honestly my favorite line of cards in all of the Pokemon TCG.

[@buchiklop110]

I always love Kouki Saitou cards. There was a Flareon card during, I believe, the Gen 4 era that had Flareon card with a worm's eye view of the Pokémon in a sandstorm. That card always stuck out to me.

[@DrIgnacious]

That Dusknoir with their arms crossed is a mood.

[@codymcgrew4015]

“I’ma let you finish... but Naoyo Kimura is the most slept on card designer of ALL TIME!” Lol great list JWittz

[@rowantritton8659]

I really love the Kyogre & Groudon Legend duo so much that I still run it at our local club every now and again just to show the younger players some of the older aspects of the game.

[@cameronhinojosa2780]

Some of my favorite full art comes from the Premium XY collection. Like, that Full Art Shaymin is SOOO cool!!

[@shreyassarangi6106]

One of my favs is a Scyther from Undaunted illustrated by Wataru Kawahara. It's one of the most detailed pieces of card art I own, and It's just amazing

[@aeroblaze4]

It's been so long...... How are you?

[@Sonicfan640]

I loved the level of aggression when he shouted "PRISON"

[@WilfredCthulu]

I always loved the one mew card that looks like it's on an ancient carving. I never had one and haven't seen it in forever, must go look at it now.

[@BJGvideos]

Wilfred Cthulu Well, it's not hard to get, like he said.

[@jamiechesnut6110]

Art wise I believe my favorite card is full art Xerneas EX from base XY. It's just so vibrant and colorful and captures the elegance of Xerneas

[@Dw7freak]

I really like the art from the second Radiant collection. Adding on to the cards that tell a story, I really liked the Charmander line, showing a young trainer with his mischievous Charmander, to the same slightly older trainer studying with his Charmeleon, to the trainer as a young adult fighting the elements with his Charizard. The most adorable art, though, has to go to Sylveon EX from the same set, with Sylveon playing with a young Eevee in both the normal and full art prints. Next would be the Flareon EX from the same set, with the normal looking at the player adorably and the full art having the three original Eevee-lutions looking at the player adorably.

[@enzyme20056]

Feel free to do more TCG videos. There are so many beautiful designs

[@MiyaoMeow588]

I don't even care, skyla is *the* bae

[@SagittariusAyy]

You get it!

[@tired_teetee5816]

Funny...

[@Mellion555]

Rewatching this after learning that KZbin did you wrong for the first 7 hours this was online, because you deserve that ad revenue. Also, watching this made me remember that I really liked collecting Pokemon cards a few years back not so much to play with them (I did use the booster codes for the TCG Online game for a year or so) but just because I really liked the art. I still have my full arts in a little binder in my room. I think I might start buying a random pack or two again every once in a while, just to try and get some cards with art that I like.

[@christiandeepe6414]

Hey Josh! Glad you’re back! Missed you!

[@ninjamushroom8367]

Seeing these in my feed make my Day way better, thanks for another amazing video Jwittz!

[@Aarhead]

Loving that Pokemon Art Academy music. Very underrated soundtrack.

[@mordecai7755]

Those Tepig - Emboar evo line cards had me crying 😭💖

[@IANF126]

one of my favorite cards is the latias xy promo card. it's just a nice cute and happy latias in full card art. it's so nice and sweet. also i think it' very good for the longevity of the cards to feature several different artists and art styles. it allows sets and cards to be unique in ways other than just the stats of the pokemon

[@Pokemaniac88]

Mate those clay cards are the absolute best! Coulda filled this whole top 10 with it.

[@hallowcrystal]

You should make this a series where you just show cool art stuff XD I love this

[@SuperTeeter64]

I love Charmander, Charmeleon, and Charizard matching story art. The kid growing up with his Charmander that stole his glasses as a kid. XD It’s so cute. Tepig one really cute too.

[@DanielisAwesome52]

I really like the implication of the Tepig story. How a Pokemon's life goes when not being trained and how pokes like Ash's Charizard is fully evolved but still really young (think of the old man Bellsprout in the anime) But whats the story of each of Tepig's evolutions? Extreme circumstances ptotecting his owner? Just plain happy occasions? Big moments? Gradual training? Do many possibilities

[@punkuin5208]

Some of the gold star shinning cards look epic. The gold star charizard is a sight to behold.

[@xcl]

I can definitely tell you put work into the script, it really shows! Great work!

[@pastarhythm2762]

Drawing art for Pokemon cards must be one of the coolest jobs in the world. I would make a card for every single Pokemon in the dex if they would let me.

[@shiny5053]

The druddigon from steam siege has to be my favorite for how menacing the card is and how the fog is used

[@pastel-sunrise]

My three favs off the top of my head are the Evolutions Mew card, Jungle Pikachu, and The first movie Pikachu Promo card.

[@tonygomez4966]

I’ve always loved the clay model cards!

[@janicemacomber4092]

Quite a wholesome video, love the little mini-skit in the beginning.

[@bookiegoodness]

SO GLAD you posted a video! Always love your videos

[@Hell_Soll]

I don´t realy have a single favorite card but it´s a set of cards instead, you probrably know them, the Eevee evolutions, with Umbreon in the ruins and the Espeon ect. I just love these

[@MegaMicah12]

Legend cards and pretty much anything by either TOKIYA or kawayoo are such good card art. Also fun fact, the artist of the Legend cards only ever made two non Legend cards (those being a Scyther and Scizor from HS Undaunted).

[@TheRebornChild]

My favorites happen to be the clay ones. Glad it's on the list somewhere

[@Coffeeandlondonfogs]

Please do another tcg art vid, or some sort of art video. I LOVED this video. Your humor is great!

[@selder_7]

new the tepig line would be here. Have one with a little boy with a Litten, starting out on his journey with a Torracat and being a full out ace trainer with an Incineroar and then I'll have feels

[@sleepyespurr2922]

I like Tokiya's style, especially his illustration of Breakpoint's Garchomp.

[@FoxMan_FF]

Somehow I knew the Emboar card set was going to make it on this list! I love that set of cards, it's cute as heck. While I'm on the subject of cute as heck cards that no one talks about, I always liked the cards that were illustrated by Yukiko Baba. There's something about the almost childish art style that I just found really charming.

[@MMillion]

Nice to see you back on KZbin!

[@iBenjamin1000]

Pokemon tcg has always had a lot of cool arts but recently I saw the decidueye gx sun moon promo full art and it looks SO SHINY

[@gameman3981]

I'm going to be completly honest, i wish that the JWittz Pokémoncard-style card you made was a thing that i could buy online or something.

[@CometTheMicroraptor]

I forgot how much I love the clay cards in the pokemon tcg... I think I need to collect them all now :D

[@Pichuscute]

Southern Islands is an incredible set. Love those cards.

[@IceClanSuperclan]

My personal favorite card art is Ampharos from Steam Siege. Especially the holo, because it looks like shooting stars in the sky!

[@derpyamu6453]

... The JWitz card... Um. That's interesting. I recently obtain a Torterrra holo from forbidden light (is that's right?) and the art is amazing. I also have a full art scizor EX and that's amazing as well!

[@kwaltherlange8539]

That symbol mentioned around 8:01 that looks like a Nazca Line version Ho-Oh, neat!

[@Yuzza121894]

Hey JWittz, been a long time watcher. Really enjoy your videos and the amount of effort you put into them. It really feels like I get to know who you are, your sense of humor if you will, through your work :). Keep up the good work my man, look forward to more videos from you.

[@queenemma5823]

JWittz giving me serious Bob Ross vibes in the intro. I love it!

[@hesterfranks9716]

"Darkrai and Cresselia Legend better be on here or i'm gonna riot" *Number 1* "OH YEAH"

[@flip.flap.]

This video makes me miss my childhood spent collecting Pokémon cards.

[@solidskullz5736]

I love the legend cards too, in fact, I have one of the halves of Ho Oh Legend

[@CreamNF]

HOLY! Those Legend-Sets are epic!

[@bobalinx8762]

YEESH! The way he yelled the word "prison" was pretty impressive.

[@DevilmarGaming]

I think the tepig art line relating to the trainer could be more related to the level of the pokemon. Tepig evolves at a level range that would be a teenager and becomes emboar in the level range of 30's when a lot of people have children.

[@1991birthday]

I personally adore the Chikorita & Fennekin arts on the Chikorita card with Fennekin on it & the Fennekin card with Chikorita on it because it calls back to a inner feud I've had with myself ever since the Johto series came out. As a kid, I loved Squirtle, it was my favorite starter but when Johto came out & more specifically, when Ash's Chikorita took down his Charizard, I fell in love with Chikorita. I had gone back & forth between Squirtle & Chikorita so much & at one point Mudkip was like but I love you too, please love me. In the end, I decided that Chikorita is my favorite & that was that. When 6th gen came around & Fennekin was introduced, I was like this is cool, finally a fire type starter I like. When mine became a Delphox I was like wait, it's not only part psychic but looks like a wizard? This is the coolest thing! The war of the favorite starter fired up again but between Chikorita & Fennekin. Since psychic is one of my favorite types, I feel like my favorite should be Fennekin, it also has my favorite shiny line but if I went by favorite typings logic, Rowlet would be another favorite starter since Ghost is another one of my favorite types. These two cards have two of my favorite starters together so I can't help but love them. I even run a Delphox deck online & had to use the Fennekin cards with Chikorita in them because those are some of my favorite. Also, yeah, the deck works out great but being a stage two deck, it bricks sometimes.

[@Jamie-MrJam]

You're not alone with thinking that Hypno is one of the best looking cards. I just picked up my first deck about a week ago and he was in there, "Goodnight, Babies" and all.

[@y-roc]

finally we get a Jwittz retrain. one of the game's most iconic cards has been out of the game for far too log in my opinion.

[@elusiveart530]

Ah it’s been awhile...the channel is looking good!

[@MustacheOnMars9]

“Before we all end up in *PRISON*!” 3:47

[@elusiveart530]

I’ve ALWAYS wanted Skyridge Ho-Oh...love the legend cards though. Those are my favorite when it comes to the art style. Nothing like English base set char though!

[@MrJaapdeboer]

My favorite set is without a doubt Neo Genesis. The watercolor art of the first, and in my opinion mainly the second generation will always stick with me

[@davidbrown180]

This was the first card game i got into. The memories.

[@christopherrivera3475]

I love that Bob Ross intro 😂 good stuff dude

[@fauxsynder]

Loved this!! I would love to see more from this series!

[@creeperwithstyle]

Holy crud dude, the Emboar line cards are incredibly cute!

[@chiu7568]

Good choices. The Pokémon card art is really well done so I know it was hard to pick.

[@ryanh1750]

I would love to see you do top ten NPCs of each game like you did for gen1.

[@DominicanStud101]

I’m always happy when you upload a video! I love your content!

[@dragon091327]

I wish there was a way to have the Pokémon card art printed or a website that had all the art for each Pokémon displayed.

[@swagkirby3449]

I like the Expedition one of the Chansey and the Aipom
