    Thank you guys, I was worried.

    Was "Skyridge" ever printed in 1st Edition?

    The internet is yielding me no results pertaining to this matter. No pictures, no auctions, no encyclopedia articles, nothing. I wasn't an active collector during the e-Series, so I don't have any first hand knowledge either. This matter is crucial, because if there were 1st Editions for...

    What Cards are "Must Have" in Pokemon Collections?

    An Unlimited Machamp isn't actually 1st Edition, since all true 1st Editions were during the Shadowless prints. Machamp is essentially a novelty, and since it was marked as 1st Edition for its entire Base Set life span, an Unlimited Machamp print shouldn't be regarded as 1st Edition at all. The...

    What Cards are "Must Have" in Pokemon Collections?

    What about Unlimited Base is impossible? I'm afraid I don't understand. I forgot all about Imakuni. While there was never an English print, his presence in the TCG Game Boy game makes him part enough of my childhood to be worth collecting. I will very likely look into that. How come the...

    What Cards are "Must Have" in Pokemon Collections?

    All of the Base Set Machamp's were 1st Edition, as they came with the starter deck that apparently found a self-negating and obsolete print of a card to be a necessity for beginners. I have a sealed one though - I'm big on sealed cards - so I consider it to be somewhat valuable. (At least more...

    What Cards are "Must Have" in Pokemon Collections?

    Just went out and bought five Stormfront boosters in hopes of a misprinted Ghastly or a Charizard Line Reprint. I didn't get any natural holographics, three Magneton Reverse Holos, and two Marley's Request reverse holos. Despite being a common card, I didn't get a Ghastly either. This reminds...

    What Cards are "Must Have" in Pokemon Collections?

    It's amazing how few of those I've heard of. Most of them appear to be Japanese - which aren't really to my liking... It's kind of self-defeating to want to collect impressive cards but only want English prints, huh? I have all of the early PreRelease (Clefable, Seadra, etc), the W stamped...

    What Cards are "Must Have" in Pokemon Collections?

    I'm familiar with the ex/Lvl X cards, and I guess I assumed they were worth collecting. I just wish the artwork wasn't so awful on them, I've always despised 3D renders for the artwork. 1st Edition Base Set Charizard and PreRelease Raichu are easily Holy Grails. It's so painful to think about...

    What Cards are "Must Have" in Pokemon Collections?

    In an attempt to fulfill forgotten childhood goals, I recently got back into collecting Pokemon cards. (Specifically my childhood sets, Base through Rocket.) As this childhood aspiration is coming to very close to full fruition, I'm wanting to expand my collection on a somewhat more contemporary...

    Were Ex Deoxys printed in reverse holos?

    On this day, I swear with God as my witness, I will never claim you did nothing for me. I must have this card... EDIT: So now my question is, does this form of holo equate to the era's reverse holo? Or are there actually three versions of this card. The regular print, the refractor shown...

    Were Ex Deoxys printed in reverse holos?

    RE: Were Ex Deoxys printed in refractor holos? Perhaps I'm misusing terminology. Many times on Bulbapedia, I've seen "refractor" holo used for the term "reverse" holo. That's what I mean... reverse holos.

    Were Ex Deoxys printed in reverse holos?

    Being a somewhat avid Pokemon Card collector, I recently decided I need a new "hook" to spark some fresh interest in collecting. So, I decided to collect one of every Starmie card ever printed (in English). I stopped collecting cards in 2000 and only in the last year did I restart my...

    Need help with identification please...

    I'm collecting all of the Black Star Promos and have been asking around from friends who once collected before I start spending any money. (Which has worked amazingly, I finished all of the Classic Sets and have about half of the Promos) Expectedly, the cards I obtain are in various conditions...

    Ruling Were these cards ever corrected?

    I know that some misprints were corrected. For example, for the first half of production Seaking and Rapidash contained a misprint that said "Put Seaking/Rapidash on the Stage 1 card" despite Goldeen and Ponyta being Basic. About half way through the production of the Base Set, the misprint was...

    Ruling Were these cards ever corrected?

    I've recently set out to accomplish one of my incomplete childhood dreams, which is to gather the entire Basic, Jungle, Fossil, and Team Rocket sets. Part of this endeavor is also arranging a separate segment of my binder to keep the misprints of the sets. However, it seems like a lot of the...
