Did I Get A Fake Card? [pokemon

Question

I felt like posting this in the Spoiler Squad to revisit some memories lmbo

It's a Charizard Vmax with an hp of 350 and it's gigantamax. (pic below) 

It does not have a code, which I thought was weird. I looked it up on a trading card site (I always use Collectr, it's the most trustworthy source I know), and couldn't find it. I did a quick search on Google, including the illustrator (rushfortacos), and I found several posts on Reddit and such, covering that this is a fake card. I do admit that "Rush for tacos" is a weird illus. name, but I've seen weirder. Furthermore,

The weird this is that I got it from an actual Pokemon SwSh box as a promo. Was it a trick? I really don't want to find out that half of my cards are fake. 

Here's a pic:

I'm looking through some tips on how to spot fakes rn because I'm probably not going to get any answers on this post.

I have 3 of these there avaliable in the 100 pokemon ex box's online there fake cards u can tell by the lineup texture glare of the holo foil and undertake on the back ground plus they feel plastic more to card

The Original Charizard Vmax Gigantamax is 330 hp, and the max health a pokemon card can have is 340 hp (besides Arceus Vmax, you can google it it is not fake), which proves it's fake.

I think it might be fake.

Answer 1

By the way, when you find out how to identify a fake Pokémon card, post it on here. I have a giant V-Max Meowth (idk where it is tho) and I want to make sure it’s real.

Answer 2

Update: I followed the pokemon community checklist as far as I could, and this appears to be a fake. Going to make double-checking for fakes a routine when I buy new pokemon cards.

Answer 3

I googled "charizard vmax 350 hp pokemon" and immedietely saw your card pop up. It was a post on Pinterest with the title "charizard CUSTOM cards in 2020"

Im sorry to say it, but I think its fake..

Im not sure, it was just one Pinterest post, but I have never seen that card before and I am a HUGE Pokemon nerd..

But hey, think of it this way, its a custom card and not everyone has it!

ESIE UR SPESHAL :O

Answer 4

You know, one day I decided to go through the Squad post, and I got hit by a wave of nostalgia. But I also noticed that a few new posts popped up there, and it was really good to see that the squad was still somewhat alive :)

SO TANK YOU MY FREN!

Also, fake or not, that Charizard is very intimidating. A bit because it has an "I" in its name...
