Does this Gengar seem fake or real?

General Question
1

No light passes thru. It has black line in the middle and not flimsy. Holo has multiple aspects. Yet for some reason I’m suspicious because I bought it online… The part that has me unsure is how Gengar’s outlines don’t seem dark enough but could be a printing error. Also, “STAGE 2” looks black when real ones seem to be gray? There is also holo bleed on yellow but could be real. Honestly when you over analyze everything becomes suspicious… pretty good fake if it’s inauthentic

What do you mean by the magenta? I’d love to learn so I can identify by eye

Your card has a 45° magenta that was never printed on the backs of officially licensed cards but i still dont see how the front looks off

Always the backs

Yep, almost all fakes of vintage cards have modern-saturated backs. But this card has issues with centering in its energy symbols, differences in font, etc. as well. I’m sure the holo wouldn’t be correct either if OP posted a video of it.

Hate to see it but yes, very fake.
