The way that the silvery gray background shimmers on the foil texture of the card gives the impression that this Metagross GX was printed on a sheet of steel. The set is centered around two islands: Rainbow Island and. The English cards have the Neo design so they get lumped in with the Neo Series but this is an odd set with only 18 cards.

Metagross GX Full Art: The Steel-type background, on the other hand, fits Metagross quite nicely. The Pokemon Southern Islands set was released July 2001 the English version anyway the Japanese version was released 2 years earlier in July of 1999.Lycanroc GX Full Art: I like Lycanroc, but the flat, doodoo brown background of the Fighting-type GXs makes me long for the Full Art EXs of the previous era which used dynamic backgrounds made specifically to fit the Pokémon.

It's not a major draw for the set, but it does work alongside with the aesthetic of the Sylveon GX quite nicely. This is just a nice card with a pretty, fun color palette. I love the vibes of this card and I say that as someone who isn't the biggest fan of the Alolan Guardians.
