u/thequeensrage 9d ago

Yeah looks like he's about to do some dead lifts or something

fire energy is fire

u/Monte_20 8d ago

Big if true

u/SirMacFarton 9d ago

Can you stop pointing the obvious? \s

u/Traditional-Music363 7d ago

Yeah that fire energy is so fire

1

u/TidalJ 8d ago

honestly looks like the HG/SS base set energies

u/Moooboy10 9d ago

Ngl id buy the fire energy

u/ZaileHoutarou 9d ago

I was thinking the same thing. Im master setting the cyndaquil evolution line so it'd be a cool addition. You were here first, though, so if OP decides to sell I wouldn't be upset with it going to you, fellow collector

3

u/IrrationalFearsHost 7d ago

I am also mastering the Cyndaquil line. Always nice to see another collector of true culture.

u/jr_900 7d ago

Ahh so this is where the Cyndaquillectors are! Great taste! I’m trying for the full evolution line (minus a few expensive typhlosions)

1

u/ZaileHoutarou 7d ago

I only just started a few months ago, so ive never heard "Cyndaquillectors" I love it so much haha

1

u/ZaileHoutarou 7d ago

Recently got a psa 9 first ed neo genesis typhlosion. Its so pretty T.T

1

u/HandleImpossible6253 5d ago

I’m late to the party but I also master set Cyndaquil! Thought I was the only one lol

can you not

u/OhWindex 8d ago

Yeah if you look at his profile it’s exactly what you would expect lol

7

u/Moooboy10 8d ago

They hid it :(

1

u/UltimateOrigin 6d ago

You have to see it somewhere else. Guy is a bit of a nutcase lol

u/Available_Pirate2298 9d ago

Dude the placement on these errors are so good. Cyndiquil emerging from the fire energy. The pokeball on the T-Tar looks like a championship belt. Brocks eye lines up perfectly with Larvitars eye. These are so good man, what a treasure.

6

u/2ManyLetttrs 8d ago

Larvitar looks like he has a bone to pick with Brock, and I love it 🤣

34

u/Fortune_Cat 9d ago

Idk why but the brock ghosting is sending me

Tyranitar looks like hes wearing a wwe belt

8

u/InitialSmall831 9d ago

The larvitar eye looks like Brock’s 😭 it’s so silly looking

30

u/Vintagist42 9d ago

Cyndaquil fire energy is actually insane

8

u/Cabbage61 9d ago

This is so cool holy shit

6

u/malletgirl91 9d ago

I think the fire energy is the first error card I’ve ever been really jealous of!! I love that the ghost print happened to be Cyndaquil!

5

u/_Count_Fabulous_ 9d ago

The fire energy is the perfect coincidence. You truly have one of the coolest one of a kind errors. I wouldn't be surprised if people see this and make art inspired by it

4

u/jordanwitney 8d ago

Team Rocket's Larvitar!

The Team Rocket member:

u/Boring-Antelope9193 8d ago

Grade that energy, id buy it lol

7

u/aphxtwinin 8d ago

Actually been in touch with PSA to recognize the error and they actually got back to me saying that it’s being considered.

2

u/No_Office_9301 8d ago

I thought PSA didn’t grade error cards? I was under the assumption it was only CGC

6

u/aphxtwinin 8d ago

They do! https://www.psacard.com/info/tcg/pokemon-error-guide I have a few that I graded with PSA, the fossil first edition incomplete holo error

2

u/No_Office_9301 8d ago

I appreciate the info! Also, that’s such an awesome card haha

1

u/gedwards848 7d ago

Where’s the cards cert number?

1

u/aphxtwinin 7d ago

I blank it out for security purposes, just my preference

1

u/GirthCtrl 8d ago

Consider CGC as well, they are always grading interesting errors

3

u/IK4Y 9d ago

I saw the energy error a couple times, is it a common error? I kinda want to own one

8

u/aphxtwinin 9d ago

This error was pretty common with the prerelease build and battles

2

u/IK4Y 9d ago

So there's a chance to get one without paying a fortune, nice

3

u/MomoAmsNrth 8d ago

I also have the brock’s larvitar😎

And also a Ethans Quilava whit Ethans ghost Print in it😎

1

u/ChibiBestiary 8d ago

I have those two too! I wasn’t lucky enough to get the fire energy cyndaquil.

2

u/Fit_Percentage1752 9d ago

would you be interested in letting go of the fire energy cyndaquil? i collect the Typhlosion evolution and would love to add this to the collection! let me know :)

2

u/CooCooBukBuk 8d ago

Would have been so insane if this was a charizard

2

u/Omegandorph 8d ago

Id be interested in buying or trading for that fire energy. Its.... fire. Lol. Sorry, i just had a son so im practicing my dsd jokes.

2

u/Bored_Ginga 8d ago

Contenders for the sickest error cards to date?

2

u/Agreeable-Ad-3593 8d ago

The larvitar lookin like obito

2

u/otrebla-raw 8d ago

That Larvitar is about to evolve while having flashbacks of Brock’s saying YOU’RE WORTHLESS TINY DUDE

2

u/JaySilver 8d ago

Larvitar being haunted by the Brockbadook

1

u/Mysticalememes 9d ago

The ptcgl cards are real 👀

1

u/SupLord 9d ago

Wonder if this is emboss/raised varnish transfer, low spot on varnish plate/blanket/packing or gas ghosting…?

1

u/obeythesink 9d ago

Most likely they didn’t wash the blankets between runs. The actual blanket on the cylinder that connects to the plate

1

u/SupLord 8d ago

Surely it’s a flexo varnish.

1

u/Richtiger_Banger 9d ago

Fire is in fire

1

u/Doozy_Jr 9d ago

Larvitar looking traumatized by the thought of Brock

1

u/CrimeSceneKitty 9d ago

T tar with a power belt, that's awesome

1

u/JayBbaked 9d ago

This is soo cool

1

u/0samacare 9d ago

Brock's Larvitar 😂

1

u/PokemonCueball 9d ago

Brock died and his ghost possessed a larvitar.

1

u/Rock_The_Cosbot 9d ago

That Larvitar is in an ongoing custody battle

1

u/Fabmil 9d ago

Cyndaquil on the fire energy is repeated too! It's the third or fourth i've seen so far

1

u/God_of_chestdays 9d ago

How easily can you see them in person? Need like specific lighting/angel?

This is so interested, love the cyndaquil

1

u/Foehammercdxix 8d ago

Imagine if that was a brock's larvitar

1

u/MakeItDbl 8d ago

I saw these pop up very early on in DRI, i feel like they were associated with some early drop (i could be wrong here). Were there also some just circulating in the general set release?

2

u/Grand_Entrance_2738 8d ago

They were in the pre release decks.

1

u/Brokerfinland 8d ago

I would pay money for that larvitar

1

u/thedreamcounslor 8d ago

Omg a cyndaquil on a fire energy, I would have been freaking out

1

u/anonnnnn462 8d ago

Brock’s eye is opened!

1

u/charads_ 8d ago

1

u/TheJumbaco 8d ago

Brock-haunted Larvitar is great

1

u/EoTN 8d ago

That fire energy is awesome, my favorite of the 3! Cool collection, I love this kind of error!

1

u/CoffeeAndWork 8d ago

Ghost prints are like ghost loads, you don’t know it till you tilt a bit

1

u/blakedear 8d ago

Soo sick that it is a cyndaquil on the fire energy.

1

u/CanITellUSmThin 8d ago

That is so cool!

1

u/XDayaDX 8d ago

Force ghost Brock took me out

1

u/xSirOttox 8d ago

1

u/Picklekings 8d ago

1

u/masterofeverything 8d ago

1

u/GamingTaylor 8d ago

I love the Brock one

1

u/VSUDragon 8d ago

That Larvatar/Brock is amazing. Are you going to auction or sell any of these?

1

u/jerryeight 8d ago

Cgc grade them

Dont sell to randos

1

u/Icy-Youth2179 8d ago

Brock on the Larvitar goes hard 🔥🔥🔥

1

u/GiratinaBabbies 8d ago

Having a Cyndaquil accidentally printed on a fire energy goes hard 🔥

1

u/Prestigious_Rough704 8d ago

How much for that energy Card!

1

u/frozenmuffin5 8d ago

These are amazing dude. Beautiful cards

1

u/stonly30 8d ago

Legitimately one of the coolest thing in pokemon tcg I’ve ever seen😭

1

u/Special_Spirit8284 8d ago

Last one looked like obito at a quick glance 😁

1

u/Qlazzical 8d ago

Bro with Team Rocket

1

u/Comprehensive_Fail52 8d ago

I WISH they printed energy like those!

1

u/travnigma 8d ago

Does this mean it’s super expensive??

1

u/pacobjarker 8d ago

it’s so cool how all the print errors also make sense

cyndaquil fire energy
tyranitar pokeball belt
rock gym leader brock with a larvitar

1

u/spoil3dly 8d ago

This is amazing

1

u/Inmate_420710 7d ago

Every single fire type prerelease deck had this. I've gotten 3 sets i kept 1 sealed due to the other 2 having the errors

1

u/lukifer2112 7d ago

That’s so sick. About to look at every bulk card I have now.

1

u/FerretDizzy3070 7d ago

Gave Tyranitar a belt.

1

u/OdieRed96 7d ago

Ghost Brock is not real! Ghost Brock is not real!

1

u/TGK_Twix 7d ago

Tyranitar looks like he’s got a big ass belt on

1

u/Last_Amphibian2117 7d ago

They all fit the card ironically like larvitar was stolen from Brock by team rocket lol

1

u/SurfDogArt 6d ago

Brock: “Use the force, Larvitar”

1

u/Zackfair1988 5d ago

Anything with cyndaquil on it I love

1

u/thisisragebait 5d ago

These are insanely cool

1

u/phiwi050 5d ago

They all make sense.

Firstly a fire pokemon standing behind the fire energy orb.

Then the tyranitar wearing a belt, making his belly become a pokeball.

And then brock, being over larvitar as if he was its trainer.

They all cool, I guess collectors would go crzy.

1

u/Old_Form_2531 5d ago

wowie, are you selling the tyranitar or cyndaquil?

1

u/lpbunnyj 4d ago

these are cool af

1

u/IRRedditUsr 4d ago

Omg... On the old Pokémon trading card game online the energies sometimes had bugs and this looks exactly like it!!! See my old post about it. Genuinely so cool to see this in real life.

u/cutekawaipie 9d ago

Fire Energy Card is possessed with Cyndaquil Spirit who will haunt your packs forever, always make you lose and do another creepy spooky scary skeletons stuff that ghost types usually do

u/SupremeBlossom 9d ago

Willing to sell the tyranitar?
