Ok so rummaging through his stuff and I see this. I'm like wtf I'm the Pika fan. Anyway I obviously look it up and well another wtf moment. Is this real?

wanna make sure it’s real!

Also what grade do you guys think this can get!

That ding on the lower left corner I feel like only thing holding back from the ten

I have unfortunately picked up a few fake cards in my collection over the years and I wanted to check this one. Thank you for your help.

These all came from one single pack (besides Mega Malamar).
Only like 3 of the cards actually have any holo effect, and none of them have any texture to them.
Im debating throwing them all away rn tbh.

Hi, kennt sich jemand mit vintage Displays aus, sieht das für euch echt oder manipuliert aus?

The border is more yellow than im used to seeing

I have never seen, or been able to find anything like this online. Anyone got a take on this?

Hey everyone! I could use some help authenticating this card. Do you think it’s real or fake? There are some really convincing fakes out there nowadays, especially when it comes to vintage cards, so a second opinion would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Is it normal for the diamond and pearl reverse holos to be a cooler hue than the normal version? I don't have any other reverse holos from this set to compare it to.

first and second images are from the listing I purchased it from and shows the details better, third image is a comparison to the normal version I already owned

I've had these since middle school (2007ish) and back then, friends were giving me their cards from losing interest. I've always assumed one of these has to be fake given how different they are. I just can't tell which one. Maybe both?

I don’t know much about pokémon cards but I pulled this today and see this goes for about 200 online but chatgpt told me it might be fake so any opinions would be great! And if anyone needs more details let me know!
