Bring Back Vintage Pokemon Holo Foils & Vintage Artworks


Bring Back Vintage Pokemon Holo Foils & Vintage Artworks
The Issue
This petition is adressed to the Pokemon company to bring back the cosmo holo foil from the WOTC era.
Pokemon is one brand for me that has perfectioned one aspect that many other brands failed to do: connecting people.
This connection has been achieved over many years and back in the days, Pokemon cards laid the foundation stone for the connection we have today.
And there are still many collectors of Pokemon cards out there nowadays.
Some who are still collecting since many years, others who didn't have the chance or the interest as kid but got into collecting Pokemon cards as an adult, and others, like me, who got got back into collecting after a very long time because of nostalgia.
I have talked to a lot of people in person as well as on internet platforms like Instagram and Facebook. The majority of people told me that they preferred the vintage holo design and the artworks back in the days.
Older Pokemon cards feel like they were designed with more passion and many details. Every holo card was unique and could have so many patterns.
To many people I talked to modern 'regular' holos as well as fullarts, etc are generic and indifferent from others. Only centering and whitening on thos cards differentiate themselves from others.
That's not the case with vintage holos. Therefore we would like Pokemon to consider printing cards again in vintage style, maybe even re-do some print runs from old sets such as the Neo era!
With those reprints younger people and people who do not have the budget to purchase vintage cards can enjoy the experience that many of us had in our childhood and many loyal Pokemon fans get to live through nostalgia as well!
Thank you!
