Pokemon Blank Cards

[omic]

I know you all have seen them.
Blank Card, Filler Card, Empty Card, call it how you wish, it’s always the same.
But how many variants are there?
Let’s find out!
These are the ones I’ve encountered so far:

---

El Blanco
Just a random Tremors reference. It’s full blank.

---

Blank Front

This variant should be in the unlimited Jungle uncommon sheets.

---

Blank Back
Just a random ancient mew missing his back completely.

---

Yellow Border

---

Yellow Border Miscut

---

All Yellow
Reference on This Thread. Might be from the Neo Era sheets.

---

Half Blank Code
Some code cards are printed poorly

---

Cosmo Holo
Nothing wrong here. Just a cosmo holo. What? Pokemons? Nono… we don’t do it here…

---

Starfoil Holo
Source Thread

---

Mirror Holo

Bonus
This is printed blank on purpose. It’s from the Babanuki (old maid) playing cards.
If I don’t put some non-tcg here and there, then I’m not happy.

And you? Any sightings of blank cards?

Any card can be a blank with enough patience + a knife or acetone

I know several ebay sellers who sell “blank” full holo cards. I buy them for my E4 secret santa. All you need is acetone and a q-tip.

This was intriguing to me: In the blank card labeled in this post; how did they know it was EX era?

I dont remember who, but iirc someone one here has 26 different variants of these filler cards. In the facebook misprint group sometimes these get posted, there are still different variants to be found. Lots of cool nuances with these.

Iirc the person with all those different variants was @c0ll3ct0r

Show Off Your Error Cards!

Whelp since I got sucked into this thread, I might as well contribute to it. For those that don’t know from other platforms, I collect Filler Cards! I’m trying to get as many different styles as possible. My collection currently consists of 28 unique cards. 26 unique styles and 2 autos. Here are pics of 26 of them. 2 are currently in grading. https://imgur.com/a/wfGMMjy The 1st set of pics are a collage of scans I put together a couple months ago. Those not with the scans are new additions sinc…

Damn he’s the real king, totally missed that post!

Tagging you in this because you may know @c011ect0r

Apart from all the ones in the linked album of @c011ect0r’s collection, here some others I know of:

French Fossil filler card from @Lobfay’s collection:

Solid yellow filler, but with Platinum era borders (the left/right borders are different from the solid yellow Neo era filler cards):

And not really filler, but since you also posted some cards with missing printed sides:

This Japanese Mewtwo without back:

These Energies with grey Pokémon backs:

This Graphite layer front with regular back:

And the reasonably well-known double sided Evolution prints from a Mewtwo Mayham deck (the Gastly is from my own collection):

Thanks for the tags! If I opened E4 more, maybe I wouldn’t be 5 days late.

@quuador and @mannynotfound covered it well by linking to the last Imgur album I put together as well as hitting some examples I don’t have. Although I have a few more I can add

Here is another Album I have: https://imgur.com/a/8p6hV4b This is just my personal tracker of styles I’ve seen pictures of but don’t have in my collection. Some in here not yet mentioned are the Black border shapes, the WOTC 3 border, and the other holo variants.

1 more imgur link because why not: https://imgur.com/a/6NM37xe Here are Fillers that hit the sweet spot of being purchased after the previously shared link but have been cut from the personal tracker now that I have them. Some holo variations and border variations.

It’s really interesting as we really have no idea where things could end. Any variation could possibly apply to different eras or years but we never know until they show up. Here is a great example, In theory there are so many different versions of the “please discard”. Not only do you get all the different languages, but then there are still 2 of each with different back styles.

At some point I want to put together a thorough guide about Fillers but I find it hard with new info always showing up. In short, I know of roughly 35-40 variations for Filler cards. But countless other possibilities that we simply haven’t seen yet to know about.

PS: I’m only counting traditional Filler Cards in my ramblings. None of the other variations that can cause blank/greyscale cards.
