    One of the best TCG artworks out there, the autumn leaves falling into the water add a great color contrast to Empoleon and the ascending water level shading.

    I’m the third guy to say this, but yeah, Arita’s empoleon looks great. There’s so many great Arita cards that have a 3d look, but without any of the poorly aged CG elements from the ex era (except for metagross ex… probably Arita’s biggest miss imo).
