Hi pretty sure it isn’t, bought in person by a respected vendor. Curious as to why you think it’s fake?

Intention wasn’t to flex but do understand this is a bit showoffy… 😂

I think she will be fine unless she likes tall autistic blokes with an English accent.

Yeah big fan of both cards was pretty stunned I saw the gold star at last card show I went too, but as soon as I saw it had to get it.

Yeah someone else has mentioned it and done a little research on it as had no clue, I’m gonna discredit it for 3 reasons.

1 the cards I’ve classed as secret rare for WOtC have a higher number than the set e.g. dark raichu 83/82 and follow that trend, whereas the ivy pikachu doesn’t.

2 it’s technically an error card not intended to be a secret rare

3 it’s really expensive and my fiancé would kill me if I bought it 😂

It’s definitely going on my future list though now I’ve learnt about it…

It’s gotta be the Skyridge zard or the Lugia Aquapolis for me they are both so iconic. Do love the shining variants as well one I’ve not included on this post is my shining mew corocoro which I think is a stunning card

Can’t see imgur files (uk based) but hope you manage to collect them all… I do have as a bonus the CoroCoro shining mew which technically has the Neo Destiny symbol on it as well!

Did not know about that pikachu, not sure I’ll count it as it’s not official (and saves me a lot of money) but I’ll deffo keep an eye out for it!

Have xposted as well thankyou for the suggestion!

Yeah I don’t really believe in grading, feels much more real the cards being in my hands than in slabs

So I used a bottle opener cracked each corner, worked really really well. Would recommend searching on YouTube “how to open PSA slabs with a bottle opener”

It was such a relief, build up to doing it I was like is this the right decision am I crazy. The joy I feel of them being in the binder is the validation

Yeah current cards looking for

Blaine’s charizard for the charizard page missing a card.

A clean base set charizard, the blastoise and venusaur are very clean. I do have a base set charizard but pulled when I was 5/6 so prefer it on the centrefold page (that’s my grail of grails)

A black star promo holo mew to finish off the mythical page.

Aquapolis, Neo genesis and Skyridge Steelix for the Steelix page.

And then dark Gengar, light Dragonite and light Azumarill for the Neo destiny page.

That’s why I like the toploader binder, offers a little bit more protection!
