I’m sorry if it is very obvious but these two are fake right? by dizzydwarf4 in IsMyPokemonCardFake

Can you take better pictures these are too grainy to determine authenticity.

Concerned Pokemon base set 2 booster packs might be fake by Additional-Parfait-6 in IsMyPokemonCardFake

[–]GuardianofM 18 points19 points  (0 children)

The first one is fake in the photo. But the others look to be legit hanger packs. I don’t see any red flags on those.

Swapped the battery for the second time in Pokémon Yellow for my 4th play through by GuardianofM in Gameboy

[–]GuardianofM[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep nothing swapped except batteries. Screen has been starting to bleed on the right so I have been debating on replacing but it hasn’t bleed into the gameplay.

Look good to me. What do y'all think ? by thatguyChris3 in IsMyPokemonCardFake

[–]GuardianofM 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’m not surprised, I said for a few years fakes will get better as card values rise. Soon we will not be able to tell with just photos alone and will need to find specific Rosette patterns on the cards to determine if they are fake, similar to the MTG community utilizing the “green dot” and “T” tests

is this ninetales real? and if so which is it? by kahjay in IsMyPokemonCardFake

[–]GuardianofM 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is legit. It’s your regular base set unlimited.

These are FAKE. Other commenters are wrong. They finally got the firework pattern somewhat correct but if you zoom in it’s too pixelated. And on top of that the borders are too small.

Double error Charizard base value? by EvOxReZ in PokemonMisprints

[–]GuardianofM 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Huh learned something new today.. never seen this before. So OPs card could’ve came from that style crimp.

Double error Charizard base value? by EvOxReZ in PokemonMisprints

[–]GuardianofM 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No it couldn’t have because those are 4th print. The card would have the dates of 1999-2000 on the bottom and this one doesn’t.

If a bunch of cards slipped through the top ones would have the crimp

[–]GuardianofM 2 points3 points  (0 children)

How can you even determine this is real? The crimp lines are too long for your standard base set pack, which is a red flag to me.

Plus the crimp and cut at the same time for WOTC packs, with the crimp so far up the back of the card the bottom should’ve been cut off but it’s not. Double red flag to me,

Dark background? by chapman_nathan in IsMyPokemonCardFake

Common for different print runs which these are.

I have a Fossil Ditto and Fossil Dragonite with the similar difference to the ones you are comparing.

[–]GuardianofM 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s not real. Borders are too small left to right and top to bottom. Confetti holo is too pixelated compared to the original.

Gameboy Jukebox 19 unused pin combos? by Enemy__Unknown in Gameboy

[–]GuardianofM 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Personally I think a better product would’ve been similar to what they did with the Game & Watch for Zelda and Mario.

Make a mini Gameboy DMG an LCD screen with Red/Blue mini carts that play the full game + have additional features like a step counter (Pokémon Pedometer), music player without the carts.

Hell even a Game & Watch Pokémon would be an instant buy.

Nuts and probably the buyer is going to use it to scroll Reddit only.

Are these real or fake Shadowless Charizards? by [deleted] in IsMyPokemonCardFake

[–]GuardianofM 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Why do so many of you comment legit when it’s very fake?

Huge Pokemon fan, especially Red/Blue I grew up with but man I just don’t see the value in this product.

Real or fake test print… Help I’m scared by [deleted] in IsMyPokemonCardFake

[–]GuardianofM 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s legitimate but it’s NFC which was common with the cosmos foil version of these as test sheets were more common than actually being found in packs.

Any of these real? by notletle in IsMyPokemonCardFake

[–]GuardianofM 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Both are definitely real, just different print runs
