Full Art
Also known as: FA, Full Art rare
A Full Art card is a Pokémon card where the illustration fills the entire card surface, breaking the traditional bordered design and extending to the card edges. Full Art cards were introduced in the Black & White era and have become one of the most popular and collectible card types in the modern Pokémon TCG. They are significantly rarer than standard card versions and often feature unique, painted-style artwork not seen on the regular version. Trainer Full Arts (featuring the game's characters) are among the most beloved Pokémon cards among collectors.
