A talented Pokemon fan online has shared their impressive pieces of artwork, which reimagines many of the series' ghost-types as if they were part of a tarot card deck. Pokemon fan art gets more creative as the years go on, and this is another great example of that.

The attention to detail is incredible, with many in the thread pointing out Giratina's presence on some of the cards, like, in the words of one user, «a looming shadow waiting to be freed.»

Because ghost-types have some of the best Pokemon designs in the entire series, there's so much potential for what zanevikart could do with this project in the future.

Despite being almost three decades old now, Pokemon remains as popular as ever, and is now completely
