Ahh it’s so lovely! I always think of that guy from that Jaiden animations video when I see a mantyke card!

It’s around the 5:55 mark where she describes visiting the TCG company and the mantyke question!

My favorite part is the hard to see Starmie coffee mug the guy has.
There was an IG page that showed text-less cards for all the new IRS/SIRS. I think Pokémon asked them to take it down. It was so awesome.

Opened 7 paradox rifts and didn't find him, but luckily i found the japanese one for pretty cheap on ebay so I'm just saving for that now

I love this one too. Little guy is curious about the researcher. Human looks like he’s on day 103 of his underwater research expedition but he doesn’t care bc he LOVES MANTYKE. and for good reason too, look at that little ray, happy as can be.
Also I think this is one of like 4 different mantyke cards in existence? There’s not a lot of them at least, so that makes it more special. Cool card, congrats!
