I have the Mewtwo, it was an original print, but the error was noticed, and they were corrected, giving them purple backgrounds. It's not much of a difference, buy oh well.
 
I have the Charmeleon and the Base Pikachu...I know someone who knows someone who has the pre Riachu

I believe we all know someone that knows someone......

What about Rocket's Minefield Gym?
 
All the Machamps are drawn wrongly!!

http://www.pokegym.net/forums/showthread.php?t=13408

Can we consider Machamp, expedition machamp, skyridge machamp and Light Machamp as a false print (misprint) as it is wearing a belt?

Base Set Machamps, Dark machamps,Giovanni's Machamps, Legendary Machamps,don't, and in game Machamps don't.
The belts are said to contain energy for evolution and disappears after it evolves!

Maybe only newer machamps are wrong.

I mean, look at William hung's avatar...
does he wear a belt? (i mean the machamp)

I hope Will wears a belt!
Otherwise, that could make for an interesting rendition of "She Bang!"!!

Anyway, I would not consider those errors, per se.
However, the Vending Machoke should be called an error. It has a picture of a Machop!

Rocket's Minefield Gym was not corrected I think.
That was what I think too. I thought they never change it.

Did you mean the one from Japanese Vending series? Is it 2 or 3?

Also I have heard about this card?
Blaine's Charizard This Gym Challenge card was printed with a Fighting energy symbol on it instead of a Fire symbol.
Does this one exist?

Yes there never was a corrected Rocket's Minefield Gym (possibly an International set had it worded correctly?)

All Blaine's Charizards had the :fighting: symbol instead of :fire:
 
Add these to your list:
  • Base Set Rapidash HP50/50HP error (actually, the corrected version is rarer than the error)
  • Base Set: many cards were printed in Black & White, not color (you ain't seen nothin till you've seen a Base Set B&W Charizard!)
Also, I believe the 1st edition Jungle Electrode had the wrong artwork on the picture. It's been a while since I've seen one, but maybe somebody can fill in the blanks on this one.
