Hmm, yeah unfortunately I'd say that sounds about 99 percent fake. Never heard of a Pokemon card like that, and the HP is usually a dead giveaway. Pretty safe to assume that they are fake, but if you'd like you can DM me a pic on Instagram and I can confirm!

Just because you re-sell cards doesn't mean you take the joy out of it, or that you aren't a fan. Far from it, really. You keep the hobby alive. There's a big difference between re-sellers and scalpers. Scalpers are terrible and definitely do take a lot of the joy away from the real fans. Most of them are just in it for the money.

Great video, I didn't know about anything you've mentioned. I just started collecting cards (Brilliant Stars), and even though ultra rares are 1/7 booster packs, I opened about 11 and I got 5 ultra rares, I guess I'm pretty lucky. I'm still on a loss, opening boosters is definitely not an investment but I love it.

That’s awesome! Glad I could help! I haven’t actually opened any brilliant stars yet myself, but it looks like an awesome set! There are some cool cards if you are lucky enough to pull them (and yes, you seem like a really lucky person!) You’re definitely right about the investment part though. It’s hard, but for that reason I try not to care TOO much about the value of the cards. It’s more fun before you realize that you are almost always going to loose money opening stuff haha! But, of course, it’s always exciting when you pull something super valuable!

[@BltchErica]

Well, the purpose of the code cards is to receem them online, so you could do that! Honesty, I don't think many people care for the online game that much though, so I prefer just using them for art!

I talked about this when I mentioned secret rare cards In the video. Basically the second number is number of cards in the set, and the first number is YOUR specific cards number In the set. So in your case, there are 215 cards in the set (ultra prism is an example of a set), and your card is number 100. This has nothing to do with rarity, unless your card is a secret rare in which it might look like 217/215

That Pikachu icon means that your card is from a theme deck! So, not pulled from a pack, but rather just included in a pre-made deck. As for the 30/30, that simply means the card is the 30th out of 30 in the set. I'm assuming that would also be from the theme deck

Hi , I have shining Charizard and rainbow Charizard gx can you please tell me the worth of these 2 cards

[@heurtau1]

Omg you just helped me out so much I literally just realised I had a secret rare trainer gold card.

[@Witkomon]

That's awesome! I'm glad I could help!

[@solidsnakeonaplane5925]

Do you recommend holding onto or selling duplicates of the same cards? Like if I have two Cacturne cards without the shiny effect on the whole card and one with the shiny effect on the card for example?

[@Witkomon]

Hmm well it's up to you! Typically duplicates are nice to trade, or even sell, because you'll still have another copy afterwards!

[@ritik395]

Hi. So I bought a trainer kitt box and it's the lycaneoc and Pikachu so when I check if my card had the black circle but as I saw it there were none so what does that mean.

[@Witkomon]

If you got the cards from a trainer kit, then they have no rarity! All the cards in trainer kits are pre determined, so there’s no rarity associated with them

[@elliottmartin2379]

I got the 2016 Machamp Pokemon Card - 59/108 - 160 HP - Rare - Mint Condition - Holo Shiny. I looked the name up. Found it with my cousin in my old box. How much is it worth u think?

[@Witkomon]

Hmm, well if it’s just a basic holo rare, then unfortunately probably not that much. Maybe a few bucks at best

[@LEGENDGAMING2580]

My sun and moon tin cards does not have any symbol

[@memegod7032]

Thank you for telling me how to see the rarities of the cards so now I know I have 2 promo cards👍🏻

[@Witkomon]

No problem! I'm glad I could help :D

[@jesusiribe6842]

Is a Training court that shine gold with the silver star and 186- 163 secret rare

[@staytrue444]

May I ask if a Charizard Spirit Link tool good? I'm very new to pokemon and I want to know if it's good!

[@Witkomon]

Could be! If you play the card game it can be useful!

[@staytrue444]

@@Witkomon thanks!

[@Legendary55Z0]

Witkomon, for my Pokémon card rarity, instead of black circle/diamond/star, most of mine are either C, U, R or RR. What do they mean?

[@Witkomon]

Ah that's the Japanese rarity if I'm not mistaken. R = rare, U = uncommon, C = common.

[@Legendary55Z0]

How about RR? Some of mine are RR

[@Legendary55Z0]

By the way, thks

[@nathaliebetts]

This video is good for people that need help knowing the rarity of there cards and it helped me😊

[@rubenlp4ever]

So shall I put all my rare in the same storage as the ultra rare? And secret rare? Do I put them away like the common ones? My doubt is what do I keep stores in the protection book and what I don't need 2

[@Witkomon]

Well, rares aren't going to be worth nearly as much as the ultra rares (most of the time), but they're still worth more, and rarer of course, then the commons! It's up to you! I keep mine in a binder!

[@Bobunyonthehero]

Is a pikachue 5 of 12 rare or expensive

[@makhipayne5111]

what does the crown mean i have a galarian moltres V AND it has a crown symbol pullled from chilling reighn

[@Witkomon]

The crown symbol is the expansion. In other words it's the symbol that represents chilling reign. Every set has its own unique symbol. Also, that's a really nice card, you're lucky!

[@keammasangu6267]

Btw I got a all blue foil magikarp and wailord gx 161/181 how much is it worth?

[@Xinwafr]

Hey I’m wondering I got a jirachi card but it has no symbol on it but I does have a cap A is it rare?

[@Witkomon]

Hey, yes! That’s actually a relatively new inclusion, the A stands for “Amazing Rare”. Those are actually ultra rare cards, about the same rarity wise as a V card! Nice, that’s an awesome card!

[@Gamer-v5x6t]

What sleeves and what type of sleeve are you using with the ultra rares in this video please?

[@johnliberty6779]

I have a charizard like that but the card is all gold front & back. Does it being that color mean anything different?

[@Witkomon]

Hmm, it depends! If it's a real card, fully golden cards are usually secret rares! So it could be a secret rare Charizard card! It could also be fake though. I'd recommend looking up your card, seeing if it matches with the images online!

[@chillinsalazar3281]

I love this video! Keep up the good work "Pokemon Champion"!😁

[@Witkomon]

Thank you :)

[@garrettstephens91]

All my cards are from 1998 to 2000 (with a few error cards and first editions) how do I determine the rarity of those?

[@jeff-the-almighty]

How much money is a zekrom and pikachu tag team worth if its rainbow when u shine a light on it

[@Alozbaki]

4 cards of my collection doesn't have a star or yk in the bottom, it has only a raichu symbol. What does it mean?

[@Witkomon]

Ah! That just means that your card is from a theme deck! It doesn't have a rarity symbol because it wasn't pulled from a pack, and was just included in the deck.

[@Alozbaki]

@@Witkomon Ah, thanks

[@Witkomon]

No problem!

[@LeMemeJames]

Hello, I got a stage 1 Alolan Dugtrio, and it says 187/149 with the star, I’ve looked everywhere to see if it’s rare or expensive but I can’t find it. So I’m going to KZbin as my last resort, so I’m wondering if you could help me at all.

[@shahahdhs]

i have 3 absols, 1 is a different design then the other 2 and has a star, the others have the same design and both a diamond, are both valid? i might have an older version.

[@Witkomon]

Yes! They are simply different absol cards, but all are certainly real! The one with the star is obviously the most rare, as the star means rare, and the diamond means uncommon!

[@kodysrio4874]

hey what does a black star at the bottom mean?I have cards ex,mega cards with silver as well but also black stars.

[@Witkomon]

Black star is also rare!

[@thirdyvlogs8338]

How much would a ultra rare halo Pichu card in mint condition cost Cause i have 3 cards

[@vs.flashcentral]

I have a question I have the raikou and it’s like a rainbow kinda swirly thing and it’s kinda shiny but at the bottom it says a A with rainbow with it. Does anybody know what the means, but sorry of my bad explaining.

[@Witkomon]

No problem, that's a good explanation! That's actually one of the brand new rarities, just came out after I made this video. That's called an "amazing rare", just as rare as an ultra rare!

[@EmmaTheBestPlayz]

Hm I'm confused one of my bulbasaurs has a magnifying thing and Pikachu looking tail with it what does that mean?

[@Witkomon]

That’s the expansion symbol, it means that your card is from the detective Pikachu set!

[@Brent-Brawlstars]

I still have 5 unopened detective Pikachu mini booster packs that I got for free with the movie (each booster pack contains 2 cards) , is that now worth much now?

[@Witkomon]

Yes! I think they are worth about $10-$15, which honestly for a 2 card pack that came out not TOO long ago, that's really good! You can pull some really cool cards in there!

[@Brent-Brawlstars]

@@Witkomon cool ! Thx 😄

[@BenjaminMoose]

I have a holographic Reshiram, instead of a star it has a checkered block after 113/114. Whats that means?

[@Witkomon]

If it doesn’t have a star, it should still have one of the symbols I mentioned in the video. Perhaps a promo? As for the checkered box, that’s represents the “expansion”, or the set that your card belongs, and usually doesn’t have much to do with rarity. 113/114 means that your reshiram card is the 113th of a 114 card total set.

[@ijustwannabepwrtofyoursymphony]

I have a 2016 1 star 82/114 xerneas break is that good?

[@Witkomon]

Yes! That’s a break card, so it’s a special card! That said, break cards are kind of niche. They were released back in the XY era, around 2016, in only a few sets. They never became hugely popular, so they never came back. Right now, most of them are not very valuable, probably a few dollars for most. But who knows in the future!
