Banned Pokemon Cards Misty. 1998 pokemon gym challenge banned misty's tears psa 10. It was later released in the gym challenge expansion when it hit american and european shores.
Personalize for birthday / christmas! This is one of the most controversial cards in pokemon collecting. The japanese artwork (also by ken sugimori) features misty being naked.
There’s been many cases of nudity representing purity (sailor moon for example), which is probably.
Therefore, as for older games, i would assume american players had an edge, since japan gets every card any. In this original artwork misty is naked with her staryu. But the weird part is, there was never an appropriate one made in japan. This card was banned, which is understandable.
