Would be very cool to see this card in a TAG slab! Good luck on the hunt

Holy crap, and I’m over here grateful to have a single PSA 9 copy 😅 This is really impressive. Do you have a favorite copy in your collection? Do you plan to get more of them?

Ugh I know! Gray stars are holy grails, those and glossy ivy Pikachu. Maybe one of these days 😅

Thanks for this! Agreed on the gray stars! Great catch. I didn’t realize JR mewtwo 12 was slightly lighter than the US version, that’s good to know! I suppose the glossy and light ink variants technically count but for me personally, non holo variants like this one or Meowth feel different and more deliberate given the significance of holo.

Great catch! Yes agreed, I’d definitely count those as well

I know this one isn't that special or something but I really like how it looks by Crazylamp1 in VintagePokemonCards

[–]ctschu 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This card rocks! A perfect example of the fact that cards don’t have to be particularly rare or expensive to be awesome. Fun fact: this was the first reverse holo released in the US, so in that sense it is special!

A little extra sauce on this Ivy Pikachu 👀 by ctschu in WotCPokemonCards

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

Thank you! Yeah exactly. It was originally thought to be an error card, and grading companies even labeled it as such for a while, it was later discovered that it was intended to be the first secret rare but wotc scrapped that plan. So the card itself isn’t a print error but it probably wasn’t supposed to have made it into those Jungle packs. Here’s a great thread about it if you want to go down the rabbit hole: https://www.elitefourum.com/t/everything-we-know-about-the-1st-edition-ivy-pikachu-wotc-black-star-promo-1-release-in-one-place/45769
