'''Pokémon''' {{Star}} (pronounced '''Pokémon Star'''<ref>[http://www.pokemon20.com/en-us/timeline.html#2004 20 Years of Pokémon - Timeline - 2004]</ref>) are a type of {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} found in the [[Pokémon Trading Card Game]] that depict the {{Shiny|alternate color}} variation of a Pokémon. | |||
First introduced in the {{TCG|EX Team Rocket Returns}} expansion, Pokémon {{Star}} saw the return of Shining/Alternate Color Pokémon after their brief appearance in the {{TCG|Neo Revelation}} and {{TCG|Neo Destiny}} expansions. While they were still bound by the 1-per deck rule, they no longer featured multiple energy-type attacks (with the exception of Latias, Latios and Rayquaza from {{TCG|EX Deoxys}}) and often had very beneficial attacks, making them much more playable. | |||
Their card design, like that of {{TCG|Pokémon-ex}} is also unique. The character art depicts the Pokémon with portions of their body protruding outside of the character window, almost as if they are "jumping out" of the card. Various areas of the card design have golden tinges added to it, such as the corners of the attack text box and character window; the shadows of these graphics are also holographic. | |||
Like their predecessors, these cards were still difficult to obtain, the odds of finding one roughly 1 in 2 booster boxes, sending their prices soaring. By far the most valuable Pokémon {{Star}} are the Japanese versions of the Eeveelutions, which were awarded as tiered prize cards to members of the Pokémon Players Club. Complete sets and the higher tier cards still command high prices. Their subsequent English release in the {{TCG|EX Power Keepers}} expansion and {{TCG|POP Series 5}} promotional set saw their initial demand decrease, though the Japanese {{TCG|World Champions Pack}} reprints of [[Vaporeon ☆ (EX Power Keepers 102)|Vaporeon]] {{Star}}, [[Jolteon ☆ (EX Power Keepers 101)|Jolteon]] {{Star}}, and [[Flareon ☆ (EX Power Keepers 100)|Flareon]] {{Star}} proved more popular than their original prints due to the distribution method of the set. | |||
{{TCG|δ Delta Species}} Pokémon {{star}} are always the type that their alternate-colored form takes on the color of. For example, [[Gyarados ☆ δ (EX Holon Phantoms 102)|Gyarados]] {{Star}} [[Gyarados ☆ δ (EX Holon Phantoms 102)|δ]] is a {{ct|Fire}} because Shiny Gyarados are red. | |||
All Pokémon {{Star}} are [[Basic Pokémon]], and all Pokémon {{Star}} cards are illustrated by [[Masakazu Fukuda]]. | |||
In the {{TCG|Diamond & Pearl}} expansion, Pokémon {{Star}} and {{TCG|Pokémon-ex}} were essentially jointly replaced by {{TCG|Pokémon LV.X}}, though Shiny Pokémon were again featured in the TCG in the {{TCG|Stormfront}} expansion. However, they received no special rules, multi-Energy attacks or visual enhancements. Their only difference from regular cards this time around was a special "starry" foil reminiscent of early English foil treatments (in Japan), or a unique collection number with the prefix "SH" (outside Japan). This change perhaps reflects that in the [[Pokémon games]], Shiny Pokémon are no different to normal Pokémon, other than that they are a different color. | |||

- If you were looking for the "shiny" Pokémon found in the Pokémon games, see Shiny Pokémon.
Pokémon (pronounced Pokémon Star[1]) are a type of Pokémon found in the Pokémon Trading Card Game that depict the alternate color variation of a Pokémon.
First introduced in the EX Team Rocket Returns expansion, Pokémon saw the return of Shining/Alternate Color Pokémon after their brief appearance in the Neo Revelation and Neo Destiny expansions. While they were still bound by the 1-per deck rule, they no longer featured multiple energy-type attacks (with the exception of Latias, Latios and Rayquaza from EX Deoxys) and often had very beneficial attacks, making them much more playable.
Their card design, like that of Pokémon-ex is also unique. The character art depicts the Pokémon with portions of their body protruding outside of the character window, almost as if they are "jumping out" of the card. Various areas of the card design have golden tinges added to it, such as the corners of the attack text box and character window; the shadows of these graphics are also holographic.
Like their predecessors, these cards were still difficult to obtain, the odds of finding one roughly 1 in 2 booster boxes, sending their prices soaring. By far the most valuable Pokémon are the Japanese versions of the Eeveelutions, which were awarded as tiered prize cards to members of the Pokémon Players Club. Complete sets and the higher tier cards still command high prices. Their subsequent English release in the EX Power Keepers expansion and POP Series 5 promotional set saw their initial demand decrease, though the Japanese World Champions Pack reprints of Vaporeon , Jolteon , and Flareon proved more popular than their original prints due to the distribution method of the set.
δ Delta Species Pokémon are always the type that their alternate-colored form takes on the color of. For example, Gyarados δ is a Fire-type because Shiny Gyarados are red.
All Pokémon are Basic Pokémon, and all Pokémon cards are illustrated by Masakazu Fukuda.
In the Diamond & Pearl expansion, Pokémon and Pokémon-ex were essentially jointly replaced by Pokémon LV.X, though Shiny Pokémon were again featured in the TCG in the Stormfront expansion. However, they received no special rules, multi-Energy attacks or visual enhancements. Their only difference from regular cards this time around was a special "starry" foil reminiscent of early English foil treatments (in Japan), or a unique collection number with the prefix "SH" (outside Japan). This change perhaps reflects that in the Pokémon games, Shiny Pokémon are no different to normal Pokémon, other than that they are a different color.
