Do any of these have any real value? I have found some in my old collection and was wondering if I should keep them or just sell them for cheap on ebay.

The most notable monster card I believe is a Holo Bellosom, while there is also three reverse holos; Slowpoke, Vileplum, and a Marill.

I only have 10 trainer cards; any notable ones anyone can think of?

All help much appricated.

Generally Japanese versions sell for less than their English counterparts if an English counterpart exists, especially on the English-speaking versions of sites like eBay.

There are a few Japanese trainer cards that had their artwork changed when they were released in English, so the Japanese versions are a little more valuable - specifically, they are Koga's Ninja Trick, which has a symbol resembling a swastika on the bottom; Sabrina's Gaze, which has Sabrina raising her hand toward the viewer and was changed because some people thought she was giving the middle finger; Misty's Tears, which has an obscured naked Misty crying and touching a Staryu; and Moomoo Milk from Neo Genesis, which has a Sentret sucking on the utter of a headless, legless cow.

@ The Japanese Art: EW. And I thought that the anime had some weird **** in it.

I've had this site as my internet homepage for ages, and I anxiously awaited the resurgence that I hoped would come. But it never came. So, it is with a heavy heart that I announce my permanent leave of Psypoke. As a moderator, I wished only the best for everyone here, and worked to maintain a jolly environment where everyone could discuss cartoon monsters in peace. Now, I wish all those who happen to be reading this message good luck in whatever endeavors you have chosen to pursue, and that your futures be bright.

Mektar out.
