Holographic Electabuzz? Can't find anything similar
 
2 Attachment(s)
I've had this card for a very long time. I've never seen anything similar...normally it isn't holographic. I can't find anything online about it either. Just wondering if anyone could tell me anything about it (estimated value, of course, is appreciated as well).
Thanks.

Checked it, found cards with the same illustration but the backround doesn't
match. there was even a reverse one.

i guess they didn't get a scan of the one you have, and i guess it's rare then.
but i still would say that it's worth is slighly bigger than the original's.

Based on that holo pattern, I'm 99% sure it's fake to the max. That holo pattern's never been used in the TCG, and no version of the base set Electabuzz is holo except for the Best Of version, which is a reverse holo that looks like this:

The reason you couldn't find anything at all is likely because the one in the OP is actually a fake.

YES! That's one of those I found.
Actually wanted to mentoin that it could be fake, but I rather didn't, as I wasn't sure about it, I'm not a TCG
pro after all...
