Redā€™s Pikachu is the rarest card of 2018. And the censored Grimer from Team Rocket was also mistranslated. Its first attack ā€œPoison gasā€ puts the opponent to sleep instead of poisoning them in the English version. WoTC had several blunders like this. ---

Its first attack ā€œPoison gasā€ puts the opponent to sleep instead of poisoning them in the English version. WoTC had several blunders like this. Are there a list of mistranslated WOTC cards somewhere? There was a mistranslated Cyrus from Ultra Prism so it doesnā€™t look like it ended with WOTC. lol [www.pokebeach.com/2018/02/cyrus-prism-star-likely-to-be-corrected-in-future-print-runs](https://www.pokebeach.com/2018/02/cyrus-prism-star-likely-to-be-corrected-in-future-print-runs) ---

How many are there exactly? Iā€™ve only seen 3 I think. There are 6 Pichu and 5 Arceus cards which are very rare. Bulbapedia has pictures of them all: [bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Spiky-eared\_Pichu\_M\_(Movie\_Random\_Pack\_9)](https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Spiky-eared_Pichu_M_(Movie_Random_Pack_9)) (theyā€™re the ones marked as ā€˜Design Contestā€™). ![](https://cdn.bulbagarden.net/upload/9/91/024332_P_GIZAMIMIPICHUMMUBI.jpg) ![](https://cdn.bulbagarden.net/upload/5/5f/024333_P_GIZAMIMIPICHUMMUBI.jpg) ![](https://cdn.bulbagarden.net/upload/c/cd/024334_P_GIZAMIMIPICHUMMUBI.jpg) ![](https://cdn.bulbagarden.net/upload/3/3f/024343_P_GIZAMIMIPICHUMMUBI.jpg) ![](https://cdn.bulbagarden.net/upload/d/d4/024346_P_GIZAMIMIPICHUMMUBI.jpg) ![](https://cdn.bulbagarden.net/upload/a/a3/024347_P_GIZAMIMIPICHUMMUBI.jpg) The Arceus ones are here: [bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Arceus\_(DP\_Promo\_50)](https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Arceus_(DP_Promo_50)). As a Pichu collector, one of the Arceus cards also has a Pichu on: ![](https://i.imgur.com/OqDPUYc.jpg) The full set has been on eBay twice to my knowledge, once in 2011 with a markup of $4,000 and another time in 2015 with a markup of $5,000. It didnā€™t sell either time. A full set of PSA7-10 cards were all sold individually back in 2015 for Ā£400 per card - as far as Iā€™m aware thatā€™s the only time theyā€™ve ever been publicly sold on eBay. If anyone has any of these for sale, please do let me know! ---

Just recently found out the japanese silver deck Dark Dragonite holo has an added beautiful holo rainbow shimmer all over the card. [Previous page](https://www.elitefourum.com/t/share-something-new-you-have-learned-about-the-hobby/21977.md?page=1)
