Keep in mind that you shouldnt trade Pokemon cards because you want to please someone or because theyre your friend

I have a pet theory, but basically back when Wizards was working on designing this release, I feel like there might have been a last minute issue with getting the original background designs from Japansuch as they had certain card elements baked in which didnt give Wizards any flexability to design cardsand so instead of waiting for updated card graphics to be sent from Japan (afterall, this was in the early years of the internet when speeds werent so hot), Wizards graphic designers simply used what they had and copied-and-pasted the clean card elements over the baked in elements its a bit messy, but honestly NO ONE noticed it for over two decades, so clearly it did the job it needed to do

In addition, many of the LOTR elves have Scry synergy, so it adds great consistency to our deck

RealityRRR

The special illustration rare print features artwork by Yuu Nishida, with the card's design filled with much of Bellibolt and its incredibly eye-catching illustration, showing Iono hugging the Pokemon with a dash of color splashed onto her hair

It's a great card
