How to Check if a Pokemon Card is Real
Best answer
CardMaster99
To spot a real Pokemon card, check the card's texture and color. Real cards have a distinct, smooth feel and vibrant colors. The border should be even and the font consistent. Also, real cards have a slight glossiness, especially for rares and holos. Holding them up to a light, you should see a uniform illumination, not patchy. A red flag is if the card feels too thick or thin compared to other Pokemon cards. Always compare with a card you know is genuine!

Just weigh it, dude. Fake cards often weigh less than the real deal.

The easiest way to check if a Pokemon card is real is by looking at the card's texture and printing quality. Real cards are made with high-quality cardstock and precise printing - fake cards tend to have blurry text or images. The holographic cards should have a clear, crisp pattern, not dull or cloudy. And don't forget the barcode and copyright info on the bottom: if they're missing or look strange, that's a big red flag.
