This was the card my kid was most excited to pull from the cards we were sent, but unfortunately it wasn’t in there. “I know,” I always think, “I’ll just buy one for him when the set’s properly in the wild.” And then I look at the $93 price tag and instead think, “No, he’ll be fine.” It’s a completely gorgeous card though, right?! It’d look amazing in any binder, and even better if you slapped it down in the middle of a live match.

It comes from artist GOTO minori, who has provided some great cards for the last year, but nothing like this. Their full-art Enamorus was impressive for its bold and blocked colors, and similarly White Flare’s Pansear. But this Kangaskhan is a step beyond. It’s useful too, letting you pull an extra two cards from your deck every turn it’s in the Active Spot, as well as delivering a 200 minimum attack, with an extra 50 for every heads flipped in a row.
