If you count non generic then solrock lunatone is easily the best. Otherwise there are other good ones but unfortunately Rapidash is definitely up there despite how underwhelming this ability is

Is this the best I/J draw engine?

Sumiyoshi Kizuki likes to reference her old cards sometimes. This Togekiss is probably meant to go with Togepi and Togetic from Team Rocket Returns. She uses the same simple art style and continues the rainbow motif. I’m happy Togekiss got to evolve after so long!
I just realized that Stormfront Tyranitar also has a “counterspell” type Poke-Body that you may CHOOSE to use during your opponent’s turn (in contrast with the abilities/Poke-Bodies that AUTOMATICALLY trigger during your opponent’s turn, like we’ve often seen on Ampharos for example).

Very cool that this beautiful card still is so cheap! Only $2

Fun fact: there are two Dark Tyranitars in TRR. The one that this card is based on (#20) is a dual Fighting/Darkness type, so this spiritual successor in Destined Rivals is a Fighting type. The other one (#19) is pure Darkness type–and its spiritual successor(s) in Stormfront and Team Up are also pure Darkness type.
Pretty interesting to track the change in wording for baby evolution. The Ex-Series used wording like “If Clefairy is an evolved pokemon” while DP changed to “If Clefairy evolved from Cleffa” for the first evolution and “If Cleffa is anywhere under Clefable” for a second evolution and then by the end of Gen 4 all cards used the “anywhere under” wording to refer to effects caused by baby evolution.

Thanks to pokopia for causing all of the dittos to spike.

It’s slightly different from the old “Dual Armor” Ability/Poke-Body, which only triggered if a certain energy type was attached.
Whirlpool
Baby Single Strike Cinderace has the exact same Ability.

the shooting star detail is very nice!

That’s fun to note, because the OTHER Dark Tyranitar in Team Rocket Returns (#20/109) also got a spiritual successor, in Destined Rivals!

There used to be a user name “Ambassador” on PokeBeach, not sure if it’s the same person, but they haven’t been active in a long while.
