The Pok\u00e9mon TCG is no different\u2014and this Braixen card from Incandescent Arcana [S11a] is one of those cards that&#8217;s seen an uptick in demand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Although Incandescent Arcana [S11a] is an eighth-generation set, the character and Pok\u00e9mon depicted in the card were introduced in the sixth generation. This Character Rare (CHR) card depicts Braixen sitting next to Serena, the female protagonist of Pok\u00e9mon X and Y. The Full Art illustration of the card clearly portrays the unmistakable Kalosian aesthetic in the background, evoking mental images of X and Y while also building anticipation for Legends Z-A.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The fact that Serena is featured certainly doesn&#8217;t hurt the card&#8217;s value. Almost all Full Art illustration cards with a female character are often in major demand owing to fanbase demographics\u2014this card falls perfectly in line with that trend.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Additionally, the fact that the featured Pok\u00e9mon is Braixen plays a part as well. Although middle evolutions of starters are usually less popular than the first and last forms, this isn&#8217;t the case with Braixen. Given the fact that it&#8217;s a fox with certain anthropomorphic physical traits, it might thus attract certain fans with&#8230; certain &#8220;proclivities&#8221;, let&#8217;s just say.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The English translation of this card is TG01\/TG30 in the Silver Tempest set.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A Braixen (Incandescent Arcana [S11a] 069\/068) card sells for 2,800 JPY (~US$18).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In other TCG-related news, check out the <a href=\"https:\/\/snkrdunk.com\/en\/magazine\/2024\/05\/07\/pokemon-tcg-groudon-enters-the-meta-with-magmatic-fury-raging-surf-sv3a-069-062\/?slide=right\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Groudon card from Raging Surf [SV3a]<\/a>.
