It is said that a home visited by a Snorunt will prosper. It can withstand cold of −150 degrees Fahrenheit.

Why does the font they used for the name look strange on this card?
Charmaster
The “S” in “Snorunt” is a bit thinner at the top and bottom than on, say, Stunfisk.

Ok so I’m not crazy! I first noticed this on another card too, it was a Snorlax and it had that same strange S. And then I noticed they were both from Twilight Masquerade. I noticed that its like that for every card in the whole set! They used a unique typeface for the names of all of the Pokemon in TWM just for that set and retired it by the next set. Someone in the card designing department got bored LOL! (and i was bored enough to notice it…)

Because my boredom knows no bounds, here are 5 other cards I found outside of TWM that exhibit the strange mystery typeface:
Toxtricity ex (SVP215)
Pikachu (SVP214)
Feraligatr (SVP213)
Pikachu (SVP101)
Snorlax (SVP051)

All digital card renders from Sword & Shield and Twilight Masquerade have this quirk, along with a handful of others, including promotional cards. It’s either an error, or something done intentionally to prevent accurate counterfeiting of the physical cards.
