    I have a bunch of old school Pokemon cards (about 500-600), and I saw this thing online with a list of all the old school error cards, and checked if I had any, and it turns out I have about 60. I'll list them, and I want to see if anyone can tell me how much they're worth. Also I checked an error card guide online that said that the Metapod and Caterpie cards were only available in 1st Edition, but mine are shadowless. Any ideas?

    5 Bulbasaur with Length/Length instead of Length/Weight (Shadowless)
    1 Kakuna with Length/Length instead of Length/Weight (Shadowless)
    5 Metapod with HP 70 instead of 70 HP (Shadowless)
    3 Caterpie with HP 40 instead of 40 HP (Shadowless)
    6 Pikachu with red cheeks instead of yellow cheeks (Shadowless)
    9 Voltorb that say Monster Ball instead of Poke Ball (Shadowless)
    3 Voltorb that say Monster Ball instead of Poke Ball (1st Edition)
    5 Vulpix that say HP 50 instead of 50 HP (Shadowless)
    3 Vulpix that say HP 50 instead of 50 HP (Unlimited)
    7 Sandshrew that say this attack does nothing instead of that attack does nothing. (Shadowless)
    8 Seaking that say Put Seaking on the Stage 1 Pokemon instead of Put Seaking on the Basic Pokemon(Unlimited)
    7 Rapidash that say Put Rapidash on the Stage 1 Pokemon instead of Put Rapidash on the Basic Pokemon (Unlimited)

    I also have a ton of shadowless cards (about 200), and I want to know if those are worth anything. I don't think any of them are rares, though.

    I know that the Pikachu goes for a good bit... check the price, I remember it being 10-20 U.S. $ each.

    I wonder if they made some cards shadowless on purpose...

    They were still playing around with the layout and design when the shadowless cards were made.

    They didn't do it to inflate values on the secondary market if that's what you mean.
