How to Tell If Your Pokémon Cards From the Burning Shadows Set Are Fake
To spot fake Pokémon Burning Shadows cards, check the card texture first. Real cards have a smooth finish, while fakes often feel more glossy or flimsy. Also, look closely at the printing quality; genuine cards have clear and sharp images, whereas fakes might have blurred or smudged graphics. Another giveaway is the coloring; if it seems off or too bright, be suspicious. Lastly, real Pokémon cards have a distinctive blue layer inside if you look at the edges, which fakes usually lack.

Just weigh them! Real Pokémon cards have a consistent weight. Fakes often weigh less cuz they skimp on quality materials.
Nah, just play online. No fakes in Pokémon TCG Live.
Biggest tip: Get real familiar with how real ones look and feel. I got tricked once at a flea market and learned the hard way. Now, I always compare with one I know is real. Fakes usually can't match the color and text font perfectly.
