2000 Pokémon Rocket Set English - Master Misprint Error Guide
A 125+ photo guide for the corrected misprints in the English Rocket Set. The goal was to include the highest quality photos possible of the significant repeating ink misprints of the set. Thanks to everyone whos’ errors or photos contributed to this project! Hopefully this will be a useful resource for everyone to learn, collect, and discover more errors for years to come! Please leave comments, suggestions, or questions below.
Created in a single day of hard work October 23, 2025. Collaboration between @misprintjeff and @JoshsOddCollection
Brilliant! Thank you @misprintjeff & @JoshsOddCollection for making all your hardwork accessible to others, a guide just like this started my error journey.
Thanks as always for the great compilation of repeating English misprints for a set!
Cool to see that the grey ink error also occurred on that Prerelease Dark Gyarados.
Although I was aware of most of them, some are new to me. I for example didn’t knew there were so many yellow ink strain errors in the Team Rocket set, even though I do have one saved picture of one of those that isn’t above yet (not mine, otherwise I’d removed that red circle so it could be added to the pictures above..)
Awesome guide as always.
I know not all of these meet your level of significant. But I’ll throw these out as well as I have seen repeats of all these cards. The knife Meowth is pretty easy to find, and the slowpoke has the same hickey on 1st edition as well
Thanks I appreciate it. And thanks for the recommendations this is what I need! I’ve seen the Dark Blastoise hickey before, the Meowth knife obstruction, Dark Dragonair, and I used to have a copy of the Slowpoke hickey. I’d be willing to add those 4 forsure if I can find at least two different photos of them. I’ll search the FB group and see how many show up. Are you able to send me photos of each card without the circles and possibly a closeup of the error? You could also message them to me on IG if thats easier for you.
Quuador you’re very welcome glad you enjoyed it! And thanks for sharing the extra test print example and the additional photos of the uncut sheet for everyone to see! I’ll add this extra test print example right now.
Thanks a bunch for making articles like this! It’s super informative, and it’s always fun to learn about errors in general. Also great to have images of the different errors.
