First introduced in Neo Revelation, the Shining Pokmon created quite a stir in the TCG community, both for their rarity and use of multiple Energy-type attacks
The Leaf supporter card can swap out the Active Pokmon by reducing the Retreat Cost by two, making it ideal for switching out Eevee or Vaporeon for the charged ex card
(Although said protections also mean that this cards user would be more or less unable to directly buff it or stop its end phase return to the extra deck) Im hoping that the strengths and weaknesses of card are potent yet fair enough to warrant it being legal to use in competitive settings
Magic: The Gathering has long been spicing up its major sets with unique alternate looks, and the latest set is no exception
Some of the best cards to pull in Paradox Rift are Special Illustration Rare cards (identified by the 3 golden star icons)
