Nope, those shiny gold-backed cards you’re thinking of? Totally not a legit product from the official Pokemon TCG. Real Pokemon cards have a distinct yellow and blue back, so anything gold is definitely fan-made or a knockoff. Cool looking? Maybe. Tournament legal? Absolutely not.

Actually, real Pokemon cards don’t come with gold backs. If you got your hands on one, it's probably a novelty item or a custom card made by fans. Real cards stick to the classic design, so keep an eye out for that authentic yellow and blue pattern!

Gold-backed cards ain't real. They're just for show.
