Hi,
I just came across a load of Pokémon cards I collected in 1999/2000. I have complete sets of base set 1 (none of which are shadowless), fossil and jungle, as well as about 2/3 of the rocket set and approximately 30 cards from base set 2. I don't know the exact time I stopped collecting, but going by the cards I have, I assume I stopped in mid-2000. As well as these cards, I also have approximately 130 other Pokémon cards (with only a couple of duplicates) and 60-ish trainer/energy cards that I cannot seem to find ANYWHERE. I'm pretty sure they're stickers, and they look exactly the same as normal cards except they are slightly smaller (both width and length) and all of them are entirely holographic.
I've read various comments on other forums saying they're fake, but then there's also quite a few people that said they remember them being released so I have absolutely no idea what to think. I just can't imagine there's anywhere I would have been able to get fake cards from when I was only about 9 at the time haha.
I've attached a couple of pictures, and any info would be much appreciated.
Cheers,
James.
