Time to go back in our binder! Today, I’m happy to announce that Blastoise (2/127) from Platinum made it to the spotlight.
Being one of the “Big Three” Originals (Charizard, Blastoise & Venusaur), this Pokémon had to make it to our spotlight somehow, right? I decided not to go too far back this time. Hmm, now that I think about it, 2009 is a pretty long time ago. Time flies!
Now, why did this Blastoise make it to the “Back in the Binder” Spotlight? Because it looks awesome. There are a lot of cool Blastoise cards out there, but this one jumped in my eye. As some of you might already know, I kinda grew up with the Diamond/Pearl/Platinum era.Platinum was the first Pokémon game I ever played. I watched the anime for about a year back then, and started collecting cards at that same time. Seeing those epic holos feels so nostalgic for me!
Back to the card. The pose is dynamic, there is enough going on to keep your eye interested in the card – water splashing everywhere, Blastoise its cannons ready to fire, and the rainbow gives it that extra “woah!” effect.
Are you also a fan of those fourth-generation holos? Then this Blastoise (2/127) might be just for you:
