The mysterious pokemon card

[spoonertunes]

Hi all,

I have a pokemon card that is really mysterious. Its is a Full Healing Energy 81/82 and has full holographics. What is weird is that I have searched and searched the net and it appears to only exist in plain card and not with the holographics. Can anybody help as to why this maybe please.

Thanks,
Rob.

Is this what it looks like? http://pokegym.net/gallery/displayimage.php?imageid=47240
If so, then it's from the Legendary Collection released during the Wizards of the Coast era of pokemon cards. It should have set symbol that looks like a square with a circle hanging off of it, like a medal.
If not, can you include a picture?

Thanks for your reply. It is exactly the same card but as you can see in the photo has a different type of shine to it.

I see, sorry to say but it seems like it's probably not an authentic card. That style of holofoil doesn't exist in the TCG, and the only holofoil full heal energy I know of is the one from the legendary collection.

Yeah... that's a fake. If anything, that should also be slightly smaller than an actual Pokemon card, based on similar fakes I have.

yes it is slightly smaller than other pokemon cards. My son has just realised that he actually has 16 of these cards and to my further surprise you can actually peel the cards to reveal that they are also stickers!!!!!!!

That's exactly how the ones I have are... they've probably long since stopped being printed, but you have to be watchful of buying cards on eBay.

I kept mine because they're quirky little fakes.

Thanks for your help guys. Disappointed that theyre fakes but at least I know now what they are.

Thanks again.
