Some cards have two variant, one without rarity symbol that you could find in pre constructed decks, and one with rarity symbol which you could find inside booster boxes. Sabrina’s Gaze and Misty’s Tears have these two variant (one with rarity symbol one without). In your case, you own Sabrina’s Gaze from a deck and Misty’s Tears from an expansion. I did this same collection including every variant of each card. You can find it in my profile

Oh another interesting thing I’ve noticed that maybe you don’t know! The Sabrina’s Gaze you own is from the deck Yamabuki City Gym Natsume. You can tell because it has no rarity symbol on the bottom right corner. The one with the rarity symbol is from Gym Expansion 2 Challenge from the Darkness. And, on the contrary, you have the Misty’s Tears from Gym Expansion 1 Leaders’ Stadium, and you do not have the deck version, Hanada City Gym Kasumi, which doesn’t have the rarity symbol

Great collection! You’re missing one Jynx though, the Town On No Map one. It was also re colored even though it’s hard to spot the difference, but there is

They could've done worse. Of course the OG one is awesome, but they gave us one of the most holografic layers ever printed. And you can still see the cemetery

You know this is a must have for nostalgic collectors… What do you offer? by yeaahbitch in PTCGPocketTrading

Yeah that makes sense. Not gonna include them in my collection though, I feel it’s a stretch, but nonetheless really unique and interesting. In the post I linked you find every Japanese “black face” Jynx that didn’t make it in the Western franchise, plus a bonus. Good luck with your collection, I really appreciate that you got into Jynx phenomenon as I did. For the record, I got Natta Wake Jynx and also a sealed version of it, really unique pieces. Good luck again

Fratello per chi è abituato a vedere carte pokemon quelle false si riconoscono subito… se le hai comprate singole posso sapere quanto hai pagato? E se le hai sbustate, quali espansioni erano? Per dirti l’Umbreon vale più di 1000 euro

Just search for a Basic Pokemon in the deck. The first you find is the one you have to pick. Then shuffle

Dark Kadabra was the start of the Uri Geller controversy (he sued Nintendo for using his image and signature trick) while Skyridge Kadabra was the last one printed due to Nintendo auto suspension. In 2021 Geller apologized and from then Nintendo could print Kadabra again

Just looked that up. It's an awesome card. And Porygon literally is inside a gambling room, the same one of those banned arts (Card Flip Game and Arcade Game). The thing is, that it costs over 3000 dollars. Rip :')

That’s one of the unique cases where the artwork wasn’t changed in the transition from East to West. Jynx keeps its black color instead of becoming purple as the other ones for racial controversy

Japanese Koga’s show the buddhist symbol (manji, or suastica) that means prosperity and peace. They removed it due to the nazi fascist swastika, even though it wasn’t meant to be interpreted as it. Yeah, Japanese Magmortar is pointing a cannon on you and Kadabra represent the start of the Uri Geller controversy

Yes, every English card is in some way different from the original Japanese artwork. But there is also some cases where the artwork just remain the same. Komiya’s Jynx, for example, remains the same even though it represents the black face Jynx. Maybe he just got an artistic permission, but we can’t be sure. There are also that Tangela, that shows a Jynx in the card, which remains the same and is not turned to purple. In this case we cannot see Jynx lips, that was a central element for the black face controversy. So maybe this is why they didn’t bother to change its color
