lol, okay first up, if the pack feels heavier than usual, some might say it's been weighed. Shops or people do this to find packs with rare cards, cuz they're slightly heavier. But honestly, it's nearly impossible to tell without super precise scales, and even then, it's a bit of a guessing game. Best bet? Buy from reputable sellers or directly from the official Pokemon website to avoid any funny business.

Not all heroes wear capes, but those who don't weigh Pokemon card packs might as well. Here's the scoop: unless you're walking around with lab-grade scales, you're probably not going to notice the difference. Packs are designed to have a consistent weight, so variations are slight, even with rare cards. Stick to buying from trusted sources, and you'll sleep better at night knowing your collection is legit.

Just weigh them yourself, duh. If you think a pack's been tampered with, comparing its weight to a known average might give you a clue. But really, if you're that deep into it, might wanna rethink where you're shopping for cards. Authenticity is a big deal in the Pokemon TCG community, and support from legit outlets keeps the game fair for everyone.

Heavy packs = more sparkle. Just kidding, sort of. Weighed packs are typically a tad heavier because of foil or holographic cards, but we're talking minuscule differences here. Most casual collectors or players won't notice. If in doubt, buying from official channels is your safest bet. Takes the guesswork out of the equation and keeps your collection on the up and up.
