    I've recently set out to accomplish one of my incomplete childhood dreams, which is to gather the entire Basic, Jungle, Fossil, and Team Rocket sets. Part of this endeavor is also arranging a separate segment of my binder to keep the misprints of the sets. However, it seems like a lot of the cards might not have been corrected. So I'm a little conflicted here.

    I was wondering, were any of these cards corrected (in America)?
    -Gyarados (Misaligned set number)
    -Vulplix (Inverted HP Indication)
    -Dark Arbok (Copyright 23000)
    -Holographic Dark Dragonite (Misaligned Energy Cost)
    -Dark Golbat(s) (Missing word "Don't" and lacking spacing)
    -Dark Vileplume (Fighting weakness)
    -Dark Rapidash (Missing word "length")

    Any help would be great, thanks!
     
    They're not fakes. All of these cards were printed with the error. As far as I know, they were never corrected. Also, since they're so far out of date, I doubt they will be, unless they reprint them in the DP sets (like they have Charmander's line, Scyther, Hitmonchan, & Electabuzz).
     
    Well they even reprinted Vulpix's error in Base Set 2, so no that one wasn't. And I can't believe I never noticed that both my holo and nonholo Dark Arboks say Copyright 23000. my cards are FROM THE FUTURE

    Also pretty cool to see that I have all but the holo Dark Dragonite and never noticed any of the errors. Especially the random fighting weakness of the Dark Vilepume.

    I love my jungle Vileplume which is missing the set icon. That one was fixed, though
     
    WHOA
    I never noticed my Dark Arbok had that error. And my Gyarados. I don't have any of the others, I seem to have lost my Vulpix card.
    Thanks, it's interesting to see I have error cards.
     
    This made me get out my old Pikachu binder that my Mom ordered me from Nintendo Power (which is still in great condition and is an excellent binder).

    I have some of these cards like Vulpix, Gyarados, Dark Vileplume, but... those are all correct from what I can see.... weird.......... Maybe I'm looking at them wrong or something or maybe they're from a different set..


    But I have TWO Dark Arboks and looked at the "Copyright 1995 - 23000", that made me LOL. :D

    This also kinda got me have that "misty-eyed" feeling. It makes me want to start collecting the cards again. The art is amazing. I'm SO going to get like 5 boosters tomorrow. I just hope I can find the sets I want.

    I need to get a new binder, and recollect up my RSE cards. I surprisingly have a lot of those for someone who's prime was back in like Jungle and such

    edit:

    Yeah Vulpix is incorrect: It says HP 50 and all the other cards say ## HP.
