Both of you are going to need to give us pictures so we can evaluate the prices properly. Preferably front and back.

I can tell you that 99.9% of all commons, uncommons, and rares aren't worth more than 25 cents a piece, so you can exclude those from your list.

And even first editions for most commons, uncommons, and non-holo rares cap out between $1 and $2, unless they're an error. Actually, even one of the errors (Base Set Vulpix with "HP 50" text instead of "50 HP" text) isn't even worth that much because the error was not fixed until a very late print run.

You... got something interesting there. Base Set 2 did indeed have a Pokédex Trainer, but it's listed as 115/130. Yours is 87/102, which is the number for the Pokédex Trainer of the first Base Set. There's no accent mark over the e (é) in Pokédex, the font used for the card looks weird and too far spaced apart. There's quite a bit wrong with your card there.

I've seen no evidence of a misprint of this nature but I'll keep researching. With lack of any information on that front, I'd say what you have there is 100% fake.

I've gone ahead and moved your post to the appropriate thread for your question.

So, I've got a question: what language is this card? I think I know what language it is but as I'm not even remotely literate in that language, I can't say for certain. We'd need to know language to determine the card's value.

These cards came in a lot of old pokemon cards I picked up at auction. Can't find any other similar cards online. Anyone know what these cards are? Thanks in advance.

id be trying to sell them in Canada

The Korean Rare Candy would probably fetch $0.25 in an English speaking country like Canada. Common international cards don't have a ton of value as we aren't allowed to use them for our tournaments (we used to be able to but the rules changed 10 years ago).

I'm thinking you have a counterfeit Pikachu & Zekrom, as card 180/181 from the Team Up set is a full art Supporter card by the name of Nita. Got photos you could upload as an attachment (by clicking the paper clip icon after clicking the "Use Full Editor" button)? The Pikachu & Zekrom with the collector's number closest to 180/181 is the rainbow rare one that's technically a secret rare and has a collector's number of 184/181.

I have a First Edition Base Set 39/102 Shadowless Porygon, in used - good condition. But there's also a grey, thin First Edition stamp on the backside. So I was wondering: Is this card is considered to be a misprint/error card?

My guess is that's simply from a card that got stuck behind Porygon for a while.

Selhurst, all 3 of those cards are counterfeits. The biggest tell on the Pikachu & Zekrom is that the collector's number is both wrong and in the wrong font. Same for the Eevee & Snorlax. Pikachu has this as well, but also has completely incorrect energy symbols (they should have the same 3D effect the ones on the other two cards do) and on top of that, there isn't actually a regular Pikachu in the Team Up set, and additionally, there is no card that actually uses the artwork used on your counterfeit.
