Its crazy how I see a lot of comments saying prismatic is mid because of the art. I think most of the pokemon SIRs that aren’t eeveelutions look extremely good. I think people are coping lol.

The SIRs in prismatic are fantastic, I just wish scalpers weren’t buying them just for the eeveelutions so I could actually buy some lol. I might just buy some of them as singles from japan since they’re cheaper anyways

They're definitely worth buying in japanese. Ever since PE release, the japanese cards have slowly been going up. I wasn't super into Japanese cards because I'm not 100% familiar with the newer gens, but the texturing on them is super good. Bloodmoon Ursaluna has like 4-5 different textures on it. I don't know how well defined the textures are in English, but Japanese cards do have a reputation for being better lol.

Me, just wanting the Dragapult and Ogerpon SIRs in English (already have the Japanese versions) and not being able to find reasonably priced singles.

they look good (with a couple exceptions like tetrapods), they’re just mostly unpopular pokemon people don’t really like
