Pokémon Collectors to the Rescue
A community of collectors, Pokémon TGC, collected evidence from research published on PokeBeach.
The eBay platform seller changed his name (number1pokemonmaster), just before the auction started, which created uncertainty and prompted the investigation; Furthermore, it is not common for it to be auctioned in a e-commerce platform.
