So! What is the difference between English and Japanese Pokemon cards and why are they so fun to collect?
One of the primary differences are the cards borders. Japanese cards feature sleek, silver (sometimes holographic) frames; whereas English cards beam with banana-yellow borders. However, its more than mere color and image variations that distinguish Japanese and English cards. With one touch, more differences become clearJapanese cards feel smooth and glossy to the fingertips, and light-weight when held in the palm of the hand; American cards, by contrast, feel more papery to the touch and relatively cheaper.
Specific types of cards hold unique differences. For example, Full Art cards feature raised textures in their English variations, but their borders are flimsy and easily torn. However, Japanese Full Art cards feature distinct holographic aspects (sunrays, for examples), as well as a more metallic, sturdy furnish.
Lastly, first edition Japanese cards feature a first edition mark on their bottom left-hand corners, which makes them more appealing to collectors. While English cards maintained this feature for a brief time, this is no longer the case.
