Starting with the standard Full Arts, the eight Eeveelutions are present and accounted for and will look stunning when displayed together. Flareon, Jolteon, Vaporeon, Umbreon, Leafeon, Espeon, Glaceon, and Sylveon offer colorful designs in their card art, which also harnesses a sense of movement.
The standard Full Art V and VMAX cards are a pleasure to pull in any packs, but the Eeveelutions have an extra majestic quality to them.
All eight of the Eeveelutions have received VMAX variants, and Umbreon will likely be the most sought after Pokemon of the set.
