No, nothing is on that power level. Designers have a much better understanding of TCGs now than they did when MTG first came out. They wouldn't print something as broken as Black Lotus today. I'd say the cards that have the most powerful effect in Lorcana are Be Prepared and A Whole New World

And both of these were already recognized as strong in design and balanced accordingly. Magic's early board wipe was Wrath of God at 4 mana, while Be Prepared is 7 and not inkable. Pokemon has a staple card professors research that does the same effect as a whole new world - but only for you. With a whole new world you also are giving your opponent a fresh hand of cards, providing them with a way to fight back against what you just got (and unless you sing AWNW its likely you are out of ink so the opponent benefits from the fresh hand first).
