'''Error cards''' and '''Misprints''', are cards in the TCG that have certain elements on the card that are incorrect. They include design errors, misprinted ink errors, and all known repeating factory errors.  Design errors that were corrected are much rarer variants making them more desirable to collectors. Uncorrected design error cards were mass produced so they are not valuable to collectors. Errors cards that are listed on the Official TCG Errata will be denoted by  ''(Erratum)''

* '''{{TCG ID|Fossil|Hitmonlee|7}}''': "Stainmonlee". A small amount of 1st edition holos were printed with vertical gold border ink stains varying in severity on the left side of the card. Only a few severe examples have been found with two stains covering from Hitmonlee's foot all the way down to the bottom border, while the most common form of this error only has the stain right below the artwork covering the word "Stretch" of its Stretch Kick attack. With every sheet that was printed, the ink slowly diminished until all the additional ink was gone.

* '''Smudged 1st Edition Stamps:''' The quality control for the 1st edition printing of Team Rocket was very poor resulting in many cards having smudged or "heavy" 1st edition stamps. The most common cards affected by this are the Trainer cards and Dark Gyarados, though it appears any non-holo card from this set can suffer from a smudged 1st edition stamp. Stamps can appear smudged, heavy, smeared, wiped, incomplete, or any combination of those.

Stamps can appear smudged, heavy, smeared, wiped, incomplete, or any combination of those.
* '''Faded Holofoil Cards:''' The quality control for the unlimited printing of Team Rocket was also very poor resulting in many unlimited holofoil cards being printed with a light ink layer resulting in the cards looking washed-out or faded. This also results in a sort of holo-bleed affect to the right of the cards artwork. It is assumed any one of the unlimited holofoil card can be affected by this error.

There is also a lack of space between the words "Pokémon" and "Apply". (Reads "Pokémon.Apply")
* '''{{TCG ID|Team Rocket|Dark Golbat|7}}''' (holo and non-holo): The Pokémon Power on English prints reads "Apply Weakness and Resistance" while the Pokémon Power on Japanese prints reads "Don't apply Weakness and Resistance." There is also a lack of space between the words "Pokémon" and "Apply", making it read as "Pokémon.Apply".

* '''{{TCG ID|Gym Heroes|Rocket's Scyther|13}}''': In all prints of this card the attack Shadow Images it reads "Whenever Rocket's Scyther is attacked, your opponent flips a coin. If tails that attack does no damage to Rocket's Scyther. (Any other effects of the attack still happen.) This effect lasts Rocket's Scyther takes damage (or is Benched or is evolved)." The error with this card is the text "or is evolved" is completely unnecessary. This card was released way before gen 2 and there is no Rocket's Scizor in this set. There was a Rocket's Scizor released later as a promo but that is a basic card therefore that rule is never applied or used.
* '''{{TCG ID|Gym Heroes|Rocket's Scyther|13}}''': In all prints of this card, the attack Shadow Images reads "This effect lasts until Rocket's Scyther takes damage (or is Benched or is evolved)" despite {{p|Scyther}} having no evolution at the time. There was a {{TCG ID|Best of Game|Rocket's Scizor|4}} card later released as a promo, albeit as a Basic Pokémon and therefore being unable to evolve from Rocket's Scyther.
