In the end, if I buy this Pokemon Scoop magazine with all supplements and the correct Deoxys promo, open it and switch out the promo for the Movie Commemoration Pack Deoxys in the same manner (put it on the front side), and close the seal again, would you be able to distinguish between the new Scoop magazine I’ve just made and the one in the original post? This comparison would be completely independent of assumptions of how collectors would store items, what anyone in the chain of custody claims/remembers, etc. To me, it really just boils down to this point, and if you do have an original unopened copy of the magazine with the wrong promo, that’s pretty neat, but it can also be replicated very easily.

oh dude your website actually helped me out, thank you.
the movie pack is rare on its own, especially sealed but promo cards nowadays hold a weird steady price of 20-40 dollars, regardless of pokemon in some cases, could be the promo market, but yeah with something so odd, ill be sure to keep an eye out and update this thread if something cool happens. i do want to archive some extremely rare things, theres some pokemon wonderland available and in the end its for deoxys, deoxys was one of the original promotional pokemon, aka the movie pokemons, like the mew from the first movie.
i know pokemon is resealed to all time highs, but with something so obscure and not even worth much as the mag while free in its heyday, was not that bad for 60 with card, the card isnt up on tcgplayer or cardmarket, im eBaying deoxys cards because they dont exist, not even basic “pokemon” fans could tell me what this deoxys card is beyond “the pokemon in ex deoxys with the rayquaza.”
we do know pokemon destroys excess cards in some cases so hey maybe a few movie pack promos got put in when they ran out and off to the shredder. thanks guys. i can vaguely remember old websites talking about scoop but man ai and pokemon hype combines makes this extra hard lol. thanks for keeping the history alive. made more info about it much more helpful
