Yeah so a holo has that foil pattern in the art itself, a reverse-holo has a foil pattern across the entire card. In modern sets, every rare is holo but in older sets the holo-rares are rarer.
Those both look good. The little symbol on the bottom right of the art is the set symbol. The Suicune is from 'Neo Revalation', and the Smeargle is from 'Neo Discovery'. Neither are first edition (would be a stamp on the left, opposite of the set), but they're old and still worth a bit.
Yeah, very nice cards. Beautiful. Those are two of the coolest cards I got. Together with a couple from Aquapolis and Expedition.
Really like my Politoed card from Neo Discovery as well. Hanging of tree trunk with a big red sun/moon in the background. Reminds one of Japan.

The WoTC era art was incredible. I put together a Base-Fossil deck for a retro tournament recently and the art is so charming lol.

There is that "Wizards" at the bottom like on my "shinier" cards. Dont why they are shiny though.
Everything else checks out on them.
My team so far for FireRed
The first 3 are who are my core team the rest are just there lol. The remaining Pokemon I want on my team that I haven’t gotten yet are Vaporeon and Scyther
My only negative for FireRed is HM slave. Felt so nice in ZA to be able to have a full team of 6 to raise instead of 5 + HM slave

Nidoking
butterfree
Jolteon
Charizard
staryu (just swapped the gyrados out, my dumbass never searched up how to get one so I had to wait till I got fly to backtrack for it)
hitmonlee
I dont have cut on any of them and it's pissing me off because I don't want a slave, though that was meowth up until now (that ability to take items is nice af)
I finally found dragonair in safari zone and it fled as soon as I threw the first bait

Don't throw bait in the safari zone. It makes them harder to catch. Better off just throwing balls lol

I read that it reduced the chance of the pokemon fleeing which is useful against the rare monsters like dragonair and scyther
it did not work for me though, if I ever see another I’ll just try with balls

Can you do the MissingNo / Duplication glitch in FireRed and LeafGreen as you could in the original Red/Blue?

I just rushed through the game with blastoise and then caught a few mons late game
Currently exploring the seven islands rn and i genuinely don’t remember a lot of this which is exciting tbh
I gotta wonder if it’s just been so long or if I missed the ruby quest somehow

I'm legit so annoyed lol. I have no mon with cut because I finally put together a great team but can't decide which needs to be stuck with cut
Surf on starmie and fly on Charizard is fine enough, but cut sucks. Probably getting rid of my butterfree but it's all I have with a psychic move atm and status moves

I didn't even know this and I was going kinda hard on the safari zone the other day just throwing balls and rocks cause I thought it was funny
It’s so funny Charizard’s model was flying for so long because of the sky battle mechanic in XY that was only used maybe 4 times and immediately got abandoned after said game
