I have a Bronzong card that says:

*picture of Bronzor* STAGE 1 Evolves from Piplup.


I also have a Whiscash that says it evolves from a Meowth.

I don't have any mistake cards, but it's possible that you have fake cards. Typos and mistakes supposedly happen a lot on fakes.

[Aureylian]

I never thought of that.

My brain is completely off today.

[OKelly]

i gotten my fav card of all time a shiny MEW! then it said stage one Mewtwo.... then i got the same mewtwo and it said stage 1 mew .... so i gave it to my friend and she still doesnt notice

[WaveSine]

I got a Darkrai card form a friend, who told me it was fake (and was giving it to me BECAUSE it was fake.)
Apparently, the card art is incorrect for the attacks, but it otherwise looks real.

[VampireQueenMina...]

Never gone against ones or seen ones in rl. When I younger though, I saw this and thought it was real. xDD



I was freaking out for a while until I grew up and figured it out. =/ But dude if this card was real.. I wouldn't want to meet it in a dark ally...

I went and bought a whole lot of card packs when i saw there price...(lowlowlow) then i opened them and went "oh.. crap."

ALL bootlegs. They weren't even the silly fake ones! XD

This.

Easy ways to tell the difference between a real card and the ones printed to look genuine: Size, color and texture.

I can't say that I've been fooled by a fake card, but I will admit that I do own a fake card, which is simply one of the bootleg Base set Mewtwos.

Someone else had it and was trying to get rid of it honestly, I knew it was a fake at the time, but I decided to take it anyways since I liked how it looked.

I still have it, it look EXACTLY like the normal base-set Mewtwo cards (Same attacks, same health, etc), just not shiny, and in part of the picture there's some goldish swirls on them. Which that difference is basically why I took a bit of a liking to it as well.

[Ground Hog]

I own a LOT of fake cards, even though they're fake, I like buying them at an Asian supermarket for about a dollar each. lol

A dollar for a booster pack, about 3 for a box of about 4 or 5 packs.

[OKelly]

one of my friends got a level.598 nidoking and he thought it was a typo but then i got my nidoking and saw that the words on the bottom of the attacks were not the name so i told him it was fake then he riped it up

[Reddu]

I never got fooled by these, but an old friend of mine had this one Charizard card. When I took a look at it, it said that Charmander was the second stage and the text was weirdo. I told the guy it was a fake. I was surprised he didn't notice it.

A fake card said nes tum insted of next turn LOL

[Mystery Man N]

I actually want to collect really silly bootleg cards.

A friend of mine gave me like, 20 bootlegs but they were just bad. Nothing funny on them or anything.

[Sharkosaurus]

I've never been fooled by fake cards, but I got a fake card deck for my first cards. XD
How do I know it was fake?
Loads of the poke cards were random thought up names, such as Vulpix was called "Sixtails". XD

[The Dittonator]

When I was younger I used to buy so many pokemon cards from this cheap shop, I probably spent so much money on it and when I went to a tournament to check I the games there and they told me that they were all fake , that was so much of my video game money!

[eddiexelite]

I've never been fooled by those cards, but some of the typos are pretty fun to look at XD

[Kingstar]

I ain't into pokemon cards but the cards i do have are not fake

[JDB1984]

There are legit cards that have mistakes too. For example, Dark Vileplume (from an old Team Rocket expansion) got the weakness right on the foil version, but wrong on the Non foil. Wizards of the Coast (the company that did the card game at the time) chose not to correct the mistake, and you could legally use either at a tournament.

There's other errors that popped up from time to time, and some of them can be worth something. The first Ancient mew cards in Japan had Nintendo misspelled, and the price for the error card was as high as $250 (don't bother looking at your card, the ones given out at the movie are corrected).
