This excellent catalogue book is the 18th in the series and covers ARC V from The Secret of Evolution right up to the latest Dimension of Chaos
Easy to spot errors on fake Pokemon cards: Incorrect fonts No accent above the e in Pokemon The name or picture of evolution is wrong, as is the set number Full art or hidden rare cards dont have any texture Energy signs are the wrong sizes Pokemon picture whole card is broken glass holo The art card has a holo design written on it, but its not holo Text that says Edition 2 where the serial is printed or anywhere else on the card The numbers and info at the bottom of the card dont match the set marks The card has rock, paper, and scissors images on it Anything from before 2019 that has over 300 HP HP doesnt match the original card Wrong border color (sometimes gold instead of yellow, sometimes yellow instead of silver) Borders that are too thick or too thin, not even, not in the middle, etc
Its not an ex, which only adds to its oddball charm
Open with hope in your heart and the intention to have fun, and you'll likely have a great time with Sword & Shield Brilliant Stars.
Additionally, the Piplup card was also given out as a Black Star Promo at the now mostly defunct US toy store chain, Toys R Us
