Actually, it's simpler than it sounds. Card markings just show rarity and set. Look out for holographic stars - those are the real treasures!

I've collected Pokemon cards for years and the thrill of spotting a holographic star (ultra-rare) never gets old. Those markings are like a mini treasure map to understanding your card's value and origin. Trust me, once you get the hang of it, you'll start spotting rarities and sets like a pro!

Oh, the mysterious markings on Pokemon cards! They're actually not as cryptic as they might seem at first glance. Each symbol or marking indicates the card's rarity - that's like how special or uncommon the card is. So, if you see a circle, that means the card is common. A diamond? That's an uncommon card. Pull a card with a star? Congrats, it's rare! And if you're super lucky and see a shiny star, that's an ultra-rare card. Sometimes, there's even more, like letters that represent promo cards ('PR') or a special set symbol that tells you which Pokemon TCG set the card belongs to. Pretty cool, right?
