(x) Text on Pokemon trading cards - Gill Sans {Rainer, Scott Leyes}
Hello,
I’m after a font I can use in a newsletter to school kids. It has to be legible down to a small point size.
The font used for text in Pokemon trading cards seems to be ideal (for example, the text in the Pokemon Magnemite card).
Would anyone know the name of this font or possibly recommend an alternative font?
Many thanks,
Adrian.

Post a sample image - PLEASE.

A sample of it would help (as I won’t show my kids any POKEMON-Tradingcards)
If it’s one of these it should be Gill Sans.

Gill Sans - Extrabold (or bold condensed) for the titles, regular for the text.

Adrian, if you want us to do the effort and try to identify your font, I think the least you can do is do the effort and post a sample for us to look at.

Thanks for answering my query.
I apologize for not posting a sample image but a friend showed me the card and, at present, I haven’t got access to the card. When I do I’ll post it immediately.
Thanks again for your help and someday I’ll try and return the favor.
Adrian.
