Japanese CGC Pristine 10 Future Flash Art Rare Blitzle 072

Released in October, 2023 in Japan, Future Flash has a big focus on the Future paradox Pokemon. Included in that are the Iron Valiant ex, Iron Hands ex, and a respectable line up of Art Rares. The sister set to Future Flash is Ancient Roar, which focuses on the prehistoric paradox Pokemon.

Illustrated by matazo, who is a newer artist having started drawing for Pokemon in mid-2023. Their art style leans heavily on the contrast between light, and shadow creating some unique cards that truly stand out in a crowd of brightly colored cardboard. Each card has a bright spot or two but, generally speaking, the artist favors cooler, darker colors. All of this is balanced well with high detail in each art!
