In 2003, Nintendo released an e-reader device that could attach to the Game Boy Advance to allow players to scan special cards to enhance gameplay and add cool features to certain games. Crystal Pokemon were a type of card created specifically for this peripheral, though they could also function as cards in physical decks. Since the Pokemon tcg Pokemon card's e-card series ended over a decade ago, Crystal Pokemon have become some of the rarest cards on the planet, though not all are equal. Some of these Crystal Pokemon are better to have in a battle than others due to their mightier mo

Trading Card Games are hugely popular, with many of Yu-Gi-Oh’s common monster cards , as well as the strongest cards belonging to Dartz , being all the rage. However, the Pokémon TCG is no different, providing to players its own range of powerful ca

Umbreon GX belonging to the Sun and Moon expansion is a hugely versatile card with 200 HP, which can play with any deck and is capable of dealing considerable damage along with dire effects for the opponent. Its secondary attack, Shadow Bullet, deals as much as 90 damage along with an additional 30 damage to one of the benched pokémon of the opponent, making it a powerful card to enact bench sniping, all for the meager cost of 1DE and 1

Here's another card with good versatility. Crobat from the Skyridge set has a hazardous attack called Poison Flame, which can put the opposing Active Pokemon in a tight spot as it can leave them Burned and Poisoned following a single coin f

Using this ability, the player can attach as many electric energy as they want from their other pokémon to Tapu Koko GX and switch this card to their active slot, all inside the same turn. It's impressive 170 HP and no resistances and weaknesses are additional benef

While some purists may gawk at the idea of slandering an original card's art by trying to paint over and around it, the results for those that are truly great speak for themselves. Each of the cards on this list is always painted with their original pokémon and backgrounds serving as the "canvas" so to speak. SumiPaints builds off of their original imagery, giving us the impression that they have peeled back the layer of stats and rules in order to reveal a larger picture that has always existed beneath the surface. This Vulpix is captured just outside of a forest in what appears to be a blossoming meadow. Possibly, Veridian Forest of Gen I fa

The higher definition droplets that the turtle Pokémon is kicking up are part of the original art, yet the way SumiPaints builds upon them and gives more detail to the body of water, as well as the rocky background, gives us an image that tells the story of a solitary Squirtle who enjoys a playful moment to itself as the day winds down to a cl

The attack is perfect for players who are using a non-GX deck, as this ability known as Foul Play, allows the player to use any of the attacks that the defending pokemon has, which includes GX attacks. Furthermore, the player only forfeits a single Prize Card to use Zoroark BREAK, making it hugely effective and economi

Being able to deal damage of 20 multiplied by the number of Energy Cards attached to this pokémon, as well as the defending other pokémon, Mewtwo EX is capable of unleashing absolute hell on opponents, all for the cost of 1DCE. It also has the ability Psydrive, but that is not the most relevant ability of this card, as X-Ball triumphs

In the universe of Pokémon Trading Card Game, part of the Pokémon franchise, few can boast of the astounding abilities that Psychic pokémon are known to have. This type is commonly associated with the ones that belong to the elite echelons of the Pokémon world, as many legendary pokémon are usually found to have Psychic traits. These pokémon are great in a team and provide helpful assistance to either themselves or the other pokémon in the t

One aspect of this card that fans might find interesting is that its Crystal Types are Fire, Water, and Electric; the types of the Legendary Beasts Entei, Suicune, and Raikou which Ho-oh is often associated w

This amounts to 30 damage every turn for very quick damage over time compared to similar moves from other Pokemon. Crobat's Squared Attack should not be ignored either, as it can do a maximum of 80 damage to an adversary with some good fort

While Fireblast is a decent attack, it also requires discarding an energy card; consequently, it is preferable to use this Fire-type's other move: Dragon Tail. This draconic devastation can deal 100 damage per hit, given good coin flips. This is the highest maximum damage any Crystal Pokemon can unleash. Combined with Charizard's high HP, this makes it the best out of all the crystalline varia

Belonging to the Guardians Rising expansion, Garbodor is a stage 1 pokémon with 120 HP. Its first attack, Trashalanch,e is uniquely useful, allowing players to deal damage of 20 multiplied by the number of Item Cards that the opponent has in his/her h
