    Probably my favorite out of Amphy’s many fantastic artworks. Does a great job capturing its lighthouse association from the main series, in addition to being a neat example of pokemon coexisting with humans in a very logical and natural way. And Kanako Eo is just a brilliant artist in general. The holofoil also looks really nice irl with the dark background c:

    This is my favorite card, like, ever. Every time I see it in a bulk bin I pick one up.
