This card, however, shows how well they can look if done right and the art looks stunning in person with the rainbow shine, and it makes us kind of miss them

In addition to that I of course also have to especially thank every individual and business that made it possible for me to buy from marketplaces that normally wouldnt ship to me, so thank you to: Zenmarket for reliably buying and delivering the Red Flash Unlimited Japanese Staraptor to me (and of course jb for listing it for sale on Mercari in the first place!) Harumio for enabling me to get my hands on the hard to find older Korean cards (although I have to mention that according to what I later read on here, service quality seems to have significantly declined) Delivered Korea for doing the same with the newer Korean cards Celestial Delinquent Shopping Service for helping me to get all of the earlier Traditional Chinese cards, even though the Taiwan shopping service has since been discontinued Buy Taiwan Online for helping me get the recent Traditional Chinese cards An especially big thank you to Imagined Youth Collectibles, who helped me to get almost all of the Simplified Chinese Staraptor cards and often threw them in for free with orders I placed (great source for Chinese products in general btw) Thaifii for enabling me to get most Thai Staraptor cards Versand aus Indonesien for while not winning awards for a trustworthy looking website enabling me to get almost all Indonesian Staraptor cards (and some Indonesian sealed products too) @tinyroadadhi for helping me get the Void Blast Indonesian cards Tonys Stark Unboxing for selling me his Spanish Trainer Kit Staraptor A very big thank you to @rayquazabrazil for helping me to get most of the modern Portuguese cards, since theyre only really available in Brazil nowadays u/Sensitive-Elk4486 on Reddit for helping with the newest Portuguese cards Kubapanikaaa for shipping to Germany back when they were only on Allegro which didnt offer international shipping in and of itself Hikomikos for selling me his Polish Reverse Staraptor (still the only one Ive seen to this day) Annet (@Akilvers) for giving me her Russian Staraptor cards Then, Ill of course thank all the other species collectors who got me into this in the first place by sharing their collections (especially of course @Quuador, but also @Citriina with her having some of the same more challenging sets as myself due to also collecting Pokmon introduced in Gen 4 that happened to be featured in Red Flash and BREAKthrough), Quollectibles who also kept an eye out for the Staraptor for me (even though in the end I found it myself) and Citrina again for providing the spreadsheet tutorial which made my collection tracking much more visually appearing

Realistically, it's pretty weak and consumes resources for very little output, but why bother with a Bear deck if you're not willing to commit with cards like Bearscape
