How to Tell if Pokemon Cards Are Shiny?
Shiny Pokemon cards typically have a distinct holographic foil pattern that makes them stand out. You can usually tell by tilting the card under a light; if it shines and reflects in a unique way, you've got a shiny! Additionally, shiny Pokemon cards often have a different color scheme than their regular counterparts, so keep an eye on those colors.
