How Can You Tell If a Pokemon Card Is Shadowless?
First off, you gotta flip that card over and check the right side of the image. If it's missing the shadow that's usually there, bam, you've got yourself a shadowless card! It's like the Pokemon is standing in some super harsh, midday sun with no shade in sight. Also, check the date at the bottom - first edition shadowless cards are from the early days, so if you see 1999 without the drop shadow, it's a solid find!

Shadowless Pokemon cards? Easy peasy - look for no shadow on the right side of the Pokemon picture and make sure the printing date is from the OG days. If it's missing those shadows, congrats! You're holding onto a piece of Pokemon history.
Honestly, the whole shadowless hype is overblown. Sure, they're old, but a card's a card. Just play and enjoy the game!
It's all about the shadows, or lack thereof. Shadowless Pokemon cards are a big deal because they're from the first print run. No shadow on the right side, early print date, and you've hit the jackpot. It's that simple.
