  • My friend has A LOT of Pokemon Cards. He also has some fake cards that his cousin bought in Canada. There are lots of freaky ones. For example, there was a Kadabra card that had a picture of what apperaed to be a Croconaw! O_o

  • Oh yes, those cards can be pretty weird. Like Vulpix, instead of 50 HP it is HP 50, the Japanese version. I think that they never corrected it and it is still like that today.

    Yes, some cards have those errors, but that doesn't mean they're fake. For example, all Machamp card are holographic and first edition; they were never changed. But others were changed, and some were not, like sometimes you'll have two Vulpix cards with one HP error and one correct one.

  • heh, i remember seeing cards that were fully holographic (this is back when the base set came out) but then i realised they were fake because the backs were very faded, and i think they may have been stickers, but im not too sure :P.

    Yes, There ARE stickers. And I have a few. [Aerodactyl, Pidgeot, Skiploom] Anyway, there are also the photo-copied ones, the front is not so blury but the back is a blury purple. Fake indeed, stupid friends won't admit it since they got so many! :P
