5 Ways to Spot Fake Pokémon Cards

[@therealpoketom]

Let me just make something clear guys for those who think these cards aren't fake. I forgot to mention this in the video. The Pack I opened these cards from said "BOOTLEG" I just didn't have the pack with me, but I know 100% they are fake!!! Because of the word BOOTLEG!!!

Banana Fallout0825 , this is the comment I was looking for when I saw this and wanted to see if any one else knew

[@PyroEvil]

Exactly the same thing I was thinking when I see this. Because the cards have the same size , so theorically having the same air resistance , the cards should hit the ground at the same time regardless of it's weigth. So this test is biased , probably because the guy already know which card is fake , he feel it more heavier. Feeling is not a valid scientific test.

Not all off center cards are fake. Some cards are rushed or weren't manufactured correctly. I opened real packs of Brilliant Stars and some were off centered a little. Same goes for miss colored cards. The set Pokemon Evolutions had rushed cards which made them darker than normal. In other words too much ink was added to them. -Younger Bro

[@bonkybonkers]

thanks for this comment. bought cards online and noticed a few cards of mine were slightly off centre or had borders that were a little darker. got a bit worried that they weren't authentic haha

[@TwoBrosGameNight]

@Bonky No worries. Just clarifying that not all miss colored cards are fake. The steps I usually take are feel the texture of the card, check for miss spellings (make sure it's not just a printing error), miss named Pokémon (make sure it's not a different language), make sure the pack art & box arts of the thing I'm opening is 100% accurate, checking to see if reverses & holos are more reflective than normal (have a reference from that set to be sure), then the final step: take a light put it under the card to see if there is a ink line. If not, I take an extra card from the same set and rip it. Just to be safe. If there is ink. It's real. If not it's a printed fake. There are, on occasion, cards that are miss colored, that are fake. Best course of action: have the real version of that card on hand. If it's still not enough, rip it to find an ink line. I'm sure there are more methods. We are bound to be fooled by a good fake card manufacturer. Just got to be careful. -Younger Bro

One thing I noticed is that on some of my fake cards on the back there is a small pink circle, like tiny and they’re usually smaller than real cards

[@joshn2342323]

Some other methods: 1. The card has typos on it (yes, this actually happens) 2. The pokemon card looks blurry. Compare it to other cards to see the difference. Pokemon cards are printed with very expensive printers while people who fake cards use cheap printers. The expensive printer will print the card with very sharp image quality while the cheap printer will make the dull image quality. 3. The corners of the card are not perfectly cut. The card cutting process is mechanical so the corners should always be perfectly round. If that is not the case, the card is most likely fake.

Thank goodness. I learned a lot I actually have a few fake Pokémon cards and I noticed right away by the color difference on the back. I also noticed how my cards were centered. Thank you so much for telling me more ways to find fake Pokémon cards.

[@capatheist]

Also card dimensions. All official Pokémon cards are the same height and width. Many fakes will be smaller and some A little larger. Have a card you know is real and stack the suspect card on top, if the edges don’t line up it’s definitely fake. Where as off centre cards do happen (just not to the extreme of the ones you showed) Misprints and miscuts are extremely rare. So resist the temptation to use that as an excuse for suspect cards (unless you pulled it from a pack yourself)

[@lgxitzoxlgxfyodtstizyxuf5379]

[@liquidwater1133]

Ikr thats what i thought

[@wraithninja1131]

thats when there is no air resistance or gravitational force

[@megashadow3789]

Actually you would think that due to Newtonian mechanics. I remember learning about that in grade 9. But.. if the fake card is heavier while being thinner at the same time, it would therefore have a higher density (needs to be tested). If it has a higher density it will have less wind resistance on its fall (Galileo discovered that). But the test probably would have to be done in such a way that the cards can reach their terminal velocity. I have a feeling a short drop they would still land at the same time due to not reaching their terminal velocity. It would be an interesting experiment to do with Pokemon cards though. I could do it... but then i'd have to like touch a fake card lol.

You can also apparently shine a light through them and if it has a black grainy texture , its real. Fake cards are usually clear and super see through

[@Zykte]

(3:50) you can't denote the weight of an object by making them fall .if the two cards are held exactly at the same spot as the the other and when you let it fall no matter the weight both will hit the ground at the same time. Surface area does matter but in this case it does not

[@dayl0vebunny]

Sorry to do this, but.... 1) Off-cuts need to be severe if you wanna use that method. There have been cases where real cards are cut wrong and those cards are worth hundreds. 2) New cards, holos, and reverse cards all squeak. Also if you spill food or drinks on them they get sticky. 3) Air resistance acts the same on both cards (real and fake) and causes no difference in time it takes to fall, though fake cards don't have a designated weight and therefore this method is very inaccurate. 4) This is really just point one again, you simply just added color/hue variations and unless you have the exact hexadecimal color swatch of real cards on hand you can't usually tell. 5) DO NOT BEND YOUR CARDS. Even if you think they are fake. Wanna lose a ton of money that you might have from EX cards, bend them. This is a horrible tutorial and it should be taken off KZbin or updated.

[@christianbuffington216]

Bravo Bunny very well said. There's 1 way that works EVERY single time to check if a card is genuine. WEIGH IT. All pokemon cards from the same series except holos and reverse holos weigh the exact same as each user. Holos will weigh the same as other holos in that series...

Another thing: Cards from big chain stores will never be fake, don't worry. That includes target, gamestop, toys r us, etc. Most fake cards are bought on ebay, or from flea markets, so never buy cards online unless the site or seller is trustworthy, never buy bulk EX cards, and don't buy from flea markets if the cards are still sealed, especially if the packs are $2 or less! I thought that might be helpful to add- I sell at a local flea market and i feel horrible seeing kids buying $1 fake packs that are sold there.

They will hit the ground at the same time. But of course there is surface area that makes air resistance which makes one of them fall slower. Now if there was no air resistance, they would fall at the same speed no matter how much matter is in an object.

[@alexisflory6496]

Shine a light through the card. Real cards don't let through very much because of how many layers of paper is used. Fake cards let through a lot of light. Check the font. Fake cards often have different fonts and boldness than real cards. If a card has blurry or hard to read lettering chances are it is a fake. On the back, a real card has a navy or royal blue border, but on fakes it is often lighter or darker than it should be. The logo and pokéball might appear washed out as well. When bent so that they make noise (but not actuall get damaged), real cards are louder than fake ones. To test this, hold the top and bottom of the card, and bend it enough that it bows, but not creases. Then add pressure on the edges, going against the bowing. It will make a noise. Do this with a real card and the suspected fake. If the questionable one makes less noise than the real one, it is a fake. If you rip a card in half or it gets damaged, you should be able to see the back layer, the front layer, and a dark colored middle layer in real cards. Real cards are printed as is. If a card appears to have gotten punched out from a sheet, this is another clue the card may be fake. Although if you got a card used or in a trade, it might just be damaged. Cards can be printed off center, but this is not a common occurance. And misprints regarding the hp markers have been reported (eg, 40hp instead of hp40). If a card is misprinted it is a good idea to check the things listed above, because misprints happen. But they are also extremely common in fake cards. These methods are used by people who authenticate Pokemon cards, and are used because of the differences between how real and fake cards are constructed.

[@rebeccagonzalez2998]

Kiernan's Game's correct

[@6rtz734]

You can’t use that really anymore because the newer cards are MUCH brighter yellow then old 2013 cards are

[@tippedbacktj8492]

I’m not gonna bend my graded charizad to find out it’s real

[@lucastaylor6255]

CyClaps did you try dropping them on the floor? Or repeatedly rubbing your fingers down the card?🤣

[@tippedbacktj8492]

Yeah It’s squeaks so I threw it away

[@tippedbacktj8492]

Well no I got it for my birthday

[@jonsnow2963]

I'm sorry but dropping them is not a legit test at all, everything drops at the same rate, gravity doesn't make things fall faster depending on weight

[@Editboi1334]

what about VMAX's?

[@thunderzgamingyt9247]

My card isn’t fake! (LeafeonV) Evidence: 1 - Is in the center, including extra detail cutting off the border, 2 - I can’t tell if it’s sticky, it’s in a case… 3 - It’s only heavier because it’s in a case. 4 - Pokéball side isn’t cut off anywhere (My border is black, is that still fake?) 5 - I don’t know if it’s bendy, it’s in a case. (Mention: Lol I said “Case” more than once but it’s in a “case”)

[@MOHIT_BADSHAH]

My 50% cards are real and 50% are fake😂
