What size tarot cards do y'all prefer?

Advice

Hi y'all, first post in the sub. Hoping to get some good feedback. I'm working on creating a Pokemon franchise themed RWS tarot deck. I know there's a couple out there that exist, but they lose most of the imagery associated with the RWS artwork and I feel like that makes those decks less accessible to newer tarot readers. They also focus too much on the pokemon themselves when there are so many characters and locations that would fit beautifully into the major and minor arcana. (Seriously, how has nobody made Ash/Satoshi into The Fool?!?)

Anywho... my biggest question about this process is what size deck y'all would prefer? I personally find that the standard tarot card size is a bit too large for my hands and a bit difficult to shuffle. As someone used to working with TCG cards and your standard 52 card poker decks, I find the 2.5"x3.5" poker size card to be ideal. With standard size tarot cards, I end up losing too many cards during the shuffling process to properly interpret. Do y'all agree with me? Do y'all prefer the standard size? What do y'all think and why?
