[@garrytanner9156]

Just look at the side edge of the card- the real cards have a black line! Also you can see through some fakes by holding up to a light!

[@royalillest]

I made a short for the light method awhile back!

Cood you know

[@arpeetnandi6797]

How to spot fake Pokemon cards:- Point 1:- See the packaging of the pack if the packet is tightly packed then it's not a fake generally fake packs are loosely packed... Point 2:- Fake packs never contains a code card. Point 3:- the light method...using a flashlight of mobile if the flashlight penetrates through the card then it's fake..if not then it's real Point 4:- Fake cards are always upside down as shown in this video.. And the last point of all using the ripping method if the card contains a black line then it's real...if not then it's totally fake...

[@royalillest]

Thanks for the info sir

Rip test is option 1 always or bust

[@MajorMartin1]

Imagine ripping a really expensive card to see if its really real, and then being like "Well, it was real."

[@polerbearyt]

I have one like that, I’m considering if I needa rip it or not, it’s a duplicate but I’m not sure lmao

[@keanpauloortiz1701]

I can use a flashlight and point it towards the card if the light passes through the card, then its fake but if u flash a flashlight toward the real one, it wont show any light from the flashlight (u might see a some light passing through but compared to the fake one there is more light that passed through the fake one than the real one)

[@tiktokdances-roblox9817]

POV a five year old ripping his charizard that he got for Christmas to check if its real

[@Bassfishern]

You can just look in between the card and if it’s a little bit of black in the middle, it’s real if not, it’s fake! lol don’t rip it

[@grimlogicmusic]

Me dissecting how to interpret what was said then me mentally visualizing looking in-between the card by peeling the card like a ditto card then saying yup its real and sliding back the top layer like it's a screen protector lmao😂

[@sparkVII]

If you gonna rip, rip the energy card in the pack

[@Kiwibon1]

some of my cards from over the years have slight varying blues on the back... pulled them all myself too from legit stores, is that normal do you think?

[@gracega2836]

Also the feeling on really cheap knock offs feels more like plastic

[@Skatemonster]

Didn’t know about the black ink part. But to be honest, I’ve never had the heart to rip a Pokémon card in half. Lol

[@Gorg12345-t]

Fake cards are usually cut imperfectly or are quite smaller as well

[@Sigma-i5f9h]

You can shine a light through

[@okuu_utsuho]

Just seeing cards being torn apart, be it pokemon or yugioh cards, it hurts me so much, fake or not.

[@MohamedEXPD]

"see there is ink so this Charizard first edition card is real... oh i riped it damn it"

[@jaxonburleigh3782]

Ripping a card is like ripping money. It's not worth it

[@8red227]

How do I know if a energy card is real or fake? I have couple of energy cards from the set HeartGold & SoulSilver but I don’t know if they are real or fake since they are old

[@rand0mfaceless]

This is maybe a dumb question, but can the year the card was made vary or must it be corect for the card to be real? I need help please

[@HeirhdjGjfjfi]

What about is the card color is off but when you rip it it has a black line is it fake?

[@yongsengteng3982]

Please mentioned the black line only applied on English cards, Japanese cards doesn't have the line when ripped

[@Akaliyeptho2005]

I bought alot of Pokemon cards back in 2019 Guess what the cards are all fake 😭 It looks legit but its all fake Here in india there's no legit Pokemon cards for sale 😢 I just want some legit card

[@revarings1379]

[@Pedro_OFCk]

Guys can someone help me, i have some battle pokemon cards that the card are harder, but I bought some booster packs and they are softer than the ones I have, idk if is fake because it came with a redeem code that works. Idk if the cards can be softer or harder

[@ajgetsbuckets9805]

What about if there old like x&y evolutions ? Do they have black ink?

[@royalillest]

Should have black ink

[@JhonUkmik]

You can rip it in half and look for a black line

[@cedricsteevee9367]

Random question,does pokémonsell metal cards?(My friend is a big fan and thought of this question)

[@royalillest]

They have only made 4 gold metal card so far. Celebration zard, celebration pikachu, 151 mew ex, and arceus VSTAR. Everything else that is metal are fake

[@leafzyn]

only ogs remember getting scammed on the playground with the blue pokeball ok the back 🔥😮‍💨

[@Luckytheuniversity2024]

my brother torn all his pokemon cards including his Charizard card and threw it in our neighbor's roof and he actually found out it was fake

[@Cboystv21]

Instead of ripping it, there's a black line in it

[@tvwolf917]

This is also a good show your friends that your Pokémon card is real

[@EllaGuess]

Also, if you have good eyes, if you look at the side of the car, you should have a black one if it doesn’t then it is fake

[@josehidalgo3289]

I rip all my rare ones making sure it's real

[@MikuWeeWo]

What happens if it's a custom one?

[@Scpsite-11]

The video above ripped a 1995 shining charizard that had BLACK INK

[@charmainefernandez1909]

Also try to bend it if it stays bended it is real but if it cannot bend then its fake

[@Empyrean21]

Here in the Philippines, fake Pokemon cards sell outside of public schools and you can tell right away the HP is around 10 thousand above while others have rock paper scissors or both

[@royalillest]

I used to live in Vietnam and this is true over there as well 😧

[@raulzenarosa2920]

Point 5 X-[ fake cards of rock paper scissors

[@royalillest]

Huh?

[@raulzenarosa2920]

​@@royalillest cause i ripped a Spanish word and rock paper scissors no ink and no difficulty rare and some symbol and i buy it from Philippines in palengke and my classmate name eros athan s soterio got pokecard book and he have real and fake cards (0-0) :-(

[@covengamingroblox]

The Cypriot version of pokemon card's have no ink and some do not have any code card's

[@deepikasrivastava2974]

What is problem with fake cards

[@TheScaryLord]

I was so scared to look at my snorlax vmax rainbow but it’s real so few😅

[@samsontannis7721]

I subbed thanks for the tips

[@tavoef7526]

Talk about the JP cards

[@lihanou]

why does it matter tho? whatever represents the cards you wanna use. You can draw one to play if you want

[@royalillest]

But if u plan on playing in actual tournament then u need the real cards

[@YuwehTejada]

Why Did I Even Tear Apart My Gx Charrizard to tell it was fake an was actually real😢 R.I.P 100$

[@sagezage]

Aw man i bought fake Pokémon cards with the money my grandma gave me :(

[@insanebobcat7202]

Also, fake cards have the retreat word spelled "retreal"

[@texis4060]

where can i buy the legit pokemon cards?

[@SuperRvince]

I also notice that some fakes have absurdly high HP in 4 digits. Like 1k HP

[@royalillest]

Yeah those are for sure fake

[@farhanfmx]

Thanks, I was about to rip all my cards to find out

[@RoIeModeI]

I just checked my little brother’s Pokemon Cards, some of his favourites are fake. I don’t know if I should let him know, he will be so disappointed

[@xSKYHOLD]

I just ripped my first edition Charizard, now I know it's not fake. What's next step?

[@royalillest]

Build a Time Machine and go back to tell yourself it’s real

[@Chester-does-VR]

Also looks for tm on the back

[@VoidRealVoid]

mine has the hollow but has a bit of twxture is that real?

[@royalillest]

If there is texture then it’s a good sign it’s real

[@banjo8975]

I thought the lighter ones were fake. Also there is a small difference in the outer line size on the back.

[@Jhonny-rt9of]

The fourth is just look on the top and there’s should be black ink to tell if it’s real

[@AnirbanBose-l8y]

Actually in some parts of Asia such as India,china and more,cards are printed with no ink in it and holo's don't have texture.For Asia specifically these cards are not fake.

[@royalillest]

I’m specifically talking about English cards

[@cinderella6927]

Real cards can shine and fake cards cannot

[@KixinIt]

you forgot 1. paper quality 2. transparency when shining a light through it, real ones dont shine through as easily. 3. print quality. fake ones tend to be blurry or shifted.

[@royalillest]

This is like my 3 shorts about fakes, I’ve covered all the ones u mentioned in my other ones!

[@AdamrayyanRozaiman-b9d]

Im gonna seperate my real and fake cards

[@jonathonlilbourne9264]

I remember as a kid Pokémon cards had purple backgrounds with the pokeball

[@ajx2956]

The other way to tel is they’re derp cheap and come from any Chinese website or Chinese 99 cent store

[@Tashi-g9j]

Okay problem No black ink but black cardboard

[@SuperLeagueSoccor]

Trying by third method YAY ITS REAL😊 The card there💀

[@Jayden-vids]

i had to rip my Mega Houndoom, these kids said it was fake and calling me a liar, so i proved them wrong🤣

[@memerinal]

I just found out the cards I have are fake.. Oh well.

[@mariocuevas5445]

Let me rip my moonbreon to make sure it’s real hold up.

[@mariocuevas5445]

Welp it’s fake….but the other 2 are real…well were real

[@king.eanimetion9941]

For us here in the Philippines the indication is if there a QR code if there none it fake

[@Soulcubb]

Damn I thought I got a $200 card and it’s fake 😭

[@YoichiMutou]

do they smell the same?

[@royalillest]

lol I didn’t test that out 😂

[@kevinfigueroa1047]

if the fake card has the same image and words, i can still use them in a game. so how fake is it? lol

[@IanB_0]

What if the ink is blue?

[@luissanchezpalacios7698]

The last part Is like a witch trial. We figured out that the card is real but at what cost? (The cost is obviously 0 now)

[@superdupersanik]

Why don't people just buy real ones from Toys R Us

[@mastergamer-qt7gz]

Toys R Us isnt available everywhere

[@superdupersanik]

@@mastergamer-qt7gz I'm sure there are other reliable stores

[@magicb5068]

Need a part 2 cause now there’s fake card with texture🙃

[@royalillest]

That’s crazy

[@Introvert-b2g]

In my culture that is in el salvador when the color is yellow witch people say it's fake it's real in my country

[@royalillest]

this short is for english cards! should of mentioned it in the video

[@crimsonamogsus7351]

Look at the edge of it

[@Kenjiaandsofia]

WHY WOULD YOU RIP A COLLECTOR'S ITEM IT COST MONEY but the rare or legendary ones cost millions.

[@royalillest]

What are u talking about

[@Darkpower128]

Just found out all of my Pokemon cards are fake except for 2

[@gambit8766]

Or you can just use your phone's flashlight. If it easily shines through, then it is fake; if you need to hold it close for it to shine through a little, then it's probably real. That's at least a very simple first test to do that doesn't require you to be an expert in card coloration or texture, and riping the card to see if it's fake or not is just plain dumb. Don't do that.

[@bfaux2011]

But what if we don't want to rip the cards?

[@royalillest]

There’s other methods u can try out

[@GopalPatel-s6c]

Pov my dumb ahh self ripping my rarest card and it's real: oh shi😂😂

[@KLove-x3t]

What about Buddyfight

[@ajdakidd6792]

Bro I’m literally confused some people say when it has the black ink it is fake and when it has black ink it is real

[@royalillest]

Black ink is real, trust me

[@PokeChaseTCG]

I just ripped my alternate art Umbreon VMAX to see if it was real 😢 it was….

[@royalillest]

[@TheYoungerArtist]

[@RosaGroza]

Mine is fake because I bought it for a cheap price😢

[@fazealfred7556]

[@Unknown42366]

[@naderplayz]

Black line does not apply to the japanese cards

[@Excelxis]

What about indonesian cards the real dont have the black line can anybody confirm?

[@royalillest]

I don’t know anything about Indonesian cards :(

[@just_aimkit]

I got the best way just look on the sides if u see a black line in-between the card it real cause of the black ink it has in it ma

[@keethankeshav8999]

Gave me heart attack I have fake😢😢😢

[@mattgrow9093]

[@parkermashburn3717]

I know none of them are fake bc i only get my cards from a poke center vending machine

[@GhoulOP-is3jr]

Just look at the back and the fake Pokémon’s are yellow
