But the journey doesn't end there.
Yes, the original Japanese version of "Sabrina's Gengar" depicted a graveyard in its artwork. The gravestones in the background raised concerns for Western audiences. The background was changed when the card was localized for its English release to avoid any religious or culturally sensitive death-related implications.
Japan has a different cultural perspective on death and grave imagery, so the graveyard was not considered problematic in its original context. However, to make the card more universally acceptable and avoid potential cultural insensitivities, Pokémon often changes the artwork for the international audience.
Artwork changes like this can make original Japanese versions of certain cards more collectible or sought after because they offer a unique, unaltered glimpse into the card's original design. This increases the value or desirability of the card among collectors.
