Default "Iit"'s a Fail World After All...

Not even The Pokémon Company International could avoid a typo. The Lugia LEGEND card has a very nice spelling mistake in the Pokédex entry.

You can clearly see "IIt".

You should probably keep that card in a case it could be really valuable if they bother to fix it.

I never saw a typo on a Pokémon product/article before, to be honest. This seems hilarious in a sense.

This is epic, epicly failed. Cat you have two!? I bet they'll fix it and then you'll get lots of money (if you decide to sell one). I envy you.

On that card, of all possible ones? That's a really neat card design though, shame they ruined it with typos.

Out of EVERY card they made, it had to be one of the LEGENDS. Pokémon Company, I salute you.

Here is a nice, high-resolution scan of the card.

Spelling error aside, that (and the Ho-oh) are the most epic Pokémon cards I have seen.

What a great card to screw up. An epic card plus an epic typo equals an epic fail, no? Reminds me of "It that you?" If they fix the error it'll surely be worth a lot in the future.

It turns out they made the same typo in Japanese card and never bothered to fix it, that's why there's a typo.

wait.....those legend cards are real?!?
I thought it was just some made up crap someone from deviantart or something came up with...
I haven't done cards for a long time, so forgive my absence of knowledge, but this is news to me.
Card looks EPIC though. (or is that 2 cards? ._.)
Nice spelling error too. xD

They are two cards.

But the error is on the Japanese one? I never bothered to check.

Ya that's what I was told by someone else, odds are they now use computers to translate everything to save money on a translator.

I think Nintendo, Gamefreak, and some help from ambrella must be LAUGHING thier asses off and going "Hey! Let's make a perfectly good card and screw it up!" The same goes for games. Explorers of Sky is a example it's baffuling that they didn't change anything and that's what gives them a big fat F for effort!

Almost forgot about this topic. Anyways, I finally got the Lugia bottom. "Iit" really is a fail.
Oh and nice Promo, Cat, even though I happen to have it and a Feraligatr too.

I bet when the Pokemon Company found out the mistake they would panic and stop printing out the cards with the mistake. Then they would claim the machines made the error and people would search and pay a lot of money for a rare card with a minor mistake.

Oh yeah, my brother got a Nidoking named Weezing (Or vice versa, I forget.) that I think is a one of a kind. I haven't seen any others on the internet.

Pictures or it never happened.

Speaking of printing errors, everyone remember the Dark Arbok that's copyrighted until 23000?

I think they do a quick look over the cards to make sure there aren't any mistakes, but these kinds of things always slip through.

Yes, indeed they do. I have a Gengar card that says "Genkar".
If I can find it I'll post a picture of it.
