there were some times (the Vivid Voltage and Fusion Strike formats come to mind) where I had no interest in playing Standard, while Expanded offered a fresh experience
However, you can also earn the packs themselves by competing in battles in the limited time event
While Im skeptical that the power level of the card is high enough, it is reasonably costed, has 4 toughness to dodge Abrade and Lightning Strike, and fits into a deck that wants to go off. The biggest thing standing in its way is that it might just be too slow for what these decks want to do
There are some others cards for which the text box isn't white, but what's in the text box is more of a background pattern rather than part of the Pokemon, for example this version of Keldeo EX from Boundaries Crossed: Given that's there's a full art version of the card in the expansion (#142), I guess it's safe to say that this card is NOT full art

First, lay your creatures out in mana-value order from left to right
