I once got a few fake booster packs and a deck from a flea market. Here and there I'll find people who collect fake cards and they're nice enough to give me a few real cards in return, so I don't feel enormously ripped off anymore.

The card is a Glaceon from Majestic Dawn. Here's a scan of it. The left edge is clipped off because of my obnoxious scanner settings, but I can assure you that the image/borders are centered (I know that one sign of a fake card is an off center print). Notice how everything is slightly blurry...

I came across an odd card in a lot that someone gave to me about a year ago. The backside is perfectly normal, but the actual card face is blurry and the typeset looks thick. I assumed that it was a fake card, but today when I went out to a Battle Road tournament one of the professors there said...

Professor Juniper is an exact duplicate of Professor Oak. It shouldn't, but it bothers me for some reason. http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Professor_Oak_%28Base_Set_88%29

I built this deck on the back of the Undaunted Daybreak theme deck (hence the name), and so far it's been particularly potent against most people. Problem is, I keep running into snags here and there where I don't draw anything useful, and I was hoping for some input. Celebi (Triumphant) x2...

Going with the train of thought that's been going on the last few posts, I'm surprisingly disappointed with Gen V myself. I got the game right after the 3DS came out because my old DS was dying and I figured I'd wait. Therefore, I talked to a lot of people and every single one of them without...

I have a fairly large quantity of the Wizards black star promos. I only just recently managed to snag a Cool Porygon, which completed my collection of the Pre-Neo Genesis ones. My favorite rare card that I own is the Japanese Here Comes Team Rocket! with the white star rarity. I was pretty...

One of the biggest things I miss is the concept of Mysterious Fossil. It was a lot less limiting when I could drop something down on my bench and make it whichever Omanyte, Kabuto, or Aerodactyl came into my hand. I have a fair quantity of Pokemon now that evolve from fossils, but I can't use...

Since I feel the blue they're using is pretty terrible, I was forced into preordering black. Really, I don't know why they can't go with that gorgeous metallic blue they used for that limited edition DSi (was it limited? I only ever saw it that one Black Friday). Though that emerald green that...

I'm a pretty big fan myself. I got into it with Wing, but as the UC stuff started coming out in America I found that much more interesting. I am rather ashamed to admit that I haven't watched any of Unicorn yet, though. Which one is my favorite? I'm pretty sure I've liked them all except SEED...

I've read over the last few pages and noticed the obvious and immediate comparisons to Gelardan and the airship guy in this trailer. However, and this is likely going to be immediately unpopular and picked apart immediately, I can't help but wondering if maybe that guy IS Gelardan. I mean, they...

I'm a fan of the one idea that was already mentioned regarding the plants that grow back immediately following a forest fire or volcanic eruption. Some of those plants REQUIRE a fire to burn through the outside of their shells in order to actually begin germinating. Though, there's nothing...

Re: The Etymology of Your username Lugia2478 is rooted in the fact that I really liked Lugia when I was inventing a screen name back in 2000. The 2478 came about because back in the day, Lugia was the 247th Pokemon in the Johto Pokedex and since "Lugia247" was already taken, I tacked an 8 on at...

Ideally I'd like to have some of my favorites following me (Kabutops, Lugia, Dragonite, what have you), but depending on availability that may not be feasible. So seeing as how I love Ampharos and there'll most definitely be one in my party, that shall be my choice.

I have to say, I've read all 7 pages so far and I was amazed that HMs were only mentioned twice or so. I guess there aren't many people who share my opinion that the HM system needs to be revamped in some way. Many of the moves are pretty bad, and having to keep/transfer an HM mule in your party...
