Additional tips
- If you're building for Elegant & Feminine Meta, repeat one motif (floral border, café table, neon sign) across three cards so the theme feels authored.
- Meloetta's cheerful base temperament invites playful sticker sleeves or washi — don't force a grimdark layout unless the art demands it.
- Keep a "swap tray" of mid-value Meloetta duplicates beside the binder — trades move faster when the page is already curated.
- Reserve one sleeve for Trainer cameos or duos with Glimmora; vignette cards routinely outperform sterile solo placeholders in flat lays.

Players file Meloetta around tier "NU" while Ability Serene Grace (Doubles the chance of moves' extra effects occurring.) shapes the fantasy — chase art that stages that payoff, not just the highest number on the slab.
- Perish Song — All active Pokémon will faint in 3 turns. — Illustration Rares that stage that motion tend to outperform static portraits.
- Normal/Psychic typings invite clash lighting or split backgrounds — lean into that tension on-page.
