Authentication Notes
Every Pokémon card is checked against known-genuine references: card stock and light-blocking layer, holo foil texture and pattern for that specific era, font and color accuracy on HP/energy symbols, and card-back print quality. First edition WOTC holos and modern alt-art chase cards get extra magnifier-level scrutiny before pricing.
