Check the card's font too! Fake cards often use the wrong font or have spelling errors. Seems obvious, but you'd be surprised how many fakes mess this up.
First off, check the card's texture; real cards have a distinct, slight roughness, especially if it's a holographic card. Fakes often feel smoother or glossier. Also, look at the coloring. Genuine cards have vibrant, consistent colors whereas fakes might look washed out or have color bleeding. Don't forget the light test: Real Pokemon cards have a thin layer of black inside, so when you hold them up to a light, they shouldn't be see-through. Lastly, the edges on real cards are clean and even, but fakes might have poorly cut edges or excessive fraying.
