It was nice to see a card-related thread, there aren't too many of those here nowadays. I have a lot of favorite cards too! It was hard to narrow them down, but I came up with 2- one trainer and one Pokemon. They're super strong in the TCG and have beautiful artwork, making them the best of both worlds.

I got into card collecting a while back but after spending quite a bit and not getting too much, I realized it wasn't a sustainable hobby for me 😅

But the other day I found out there's a new Pokemon card set with shiny pokemon, and my shiny hunter heart could not skip out on trying for shiny pokemon cards 🥹 I bought two booster packs today just for fun, and omg im so surprised I got a special art card!!! I'm already happy just having a shiny pokemon card, but to pull a special art version?? I think this was my luckiest pull yet 🥹

I don't plan on buying any more booster packs, but I do plan on collecting some specific cards from the set, notably shiny cleffa and the shiny pawmi special art 🥹💕
 
I know it's not released yet but I think it would be great to have a full art card thingy of good ol' Kiki (not the cat). It could be my all-time favorite TCG card, actually! But I'll have to wait until the Twilight Masquerade expansion releases, and then I'll go back to opening booster backs like I did when I was in elementary school. For now, I'll stick with this.

For my favorite released TCG cards, it would have to be these three below (for now,) I liked them simply for their design. Oh and I don't have them anymore. My collection got lost to time.

these three, because they're my favorite pokemon.

i have them all next to each other on my wall. (they're in sleeves, don't worry, i'm not taping the actual cards lol.) i also like the V cards for these three, the ones that came with the tins. (those ones are on my shelf.) honestly, i like most of their cards, but these three probably the most. or!

which i will never get because it's pricey.
 
I used to play and collect Pokemon cards when I was a kid, but I stopped at some point. I've been curious about getting into the game again, and have been getting Stellar Crown booster packs every now and then with the hopes of being able to find this particular Hydrapple card:

Ooh, I have that one! The art is so good-
If we're talking about buying random packs.. I try to buy random Lost Origin packs for this card

This one is definitely a hear me out case but, hear me out. Back when I was a kiddo and Pokémon was in full bloom, I collected cards and all my friends had this one. Bill. It seemed to be a common card but for some reason I just couldn't get one for the life of me. Fast forward to meeting my high school best friend who also collected cards. When I told them about me being super sad as a kid because everyone had a Bill card but me, they took theirs off their binder and gave it to me. (˚ ˃̣̣̥⌓˂̣̣̥ )♡♡♡

It's my favorite card to this day, along with a Groudon they sold me for like. One buck. (':

This one is my favorite- from the breakpoint X and Y set. Shinx is one of my top 5 favorite Pokemon, and this card is so cute! The attack called flop, the cute art, the flower petal on its head. Beautiful card. 10/10 no notes.

I have so many cool cards it's hard to pick. I always liked this one a lot since it's a shiny of one of my favorites, and just a fun design to look at. Wish they didn't take fairy type out of the game.

For more recent cards, probably this promo set. More favorites, and I like the neat display frame they come with. The Violet/Scarlet sets introduced a ton of nice looking new cards.

I collect all kinds of random cards, especially promos and more unusual ones, like some of the giant sized cards and the Japanese CD promo set. I see some of you also like Ancient Mew, that's another artwork I never get tired of, and as one of my first promos it helped get me more interested in card collecting.
