Ancient Mew Card
So… I don't mean to brag… but I awhile back, I happened to stumble onto some cards at a Goodwill... It was a small binder—more like a booklet... Inside was the Ancient Mew Card. I loved it and it meant so much to find something that looked so odd, within the collection I had accumulated.
I have no intention of giving it up, but I kept hearing and seeing stuff about the TCG, and I kinda wanted to share that a bit, real quick…
Anyway… that was it.
P.S. I have no idea if it's viable in official tournaments or anything—not that I could handle or win one—just saying in case I ever decide to actually use it.

My friend had one too. It got banned from any official cards I think because anyone could just claim it said whatever. It was REEEALLY cool tho…

Except I don't think it does, I think it was just nonsense symbols…

So, I did a bit of research, and it turns out the runes it uses are real runes, but they don't use their real meanings.
The full text of the card (as translated by the key it originally came with) is as follows:
MEW HP 30
🟣🟣 Psyche 40
Weakness Resistance
+ New Species
🟣 Little God… or Evil -
Retreat Cost

Fun fact, the card was reprinted in Japan as recently as 2019, and in South Korea as recently as 2020 to celebrate the release of Mewtwo Strikes Back — Evolution! The 2019 reprint changed the "Little God… or Evil" text to say "Little Good… or Evil".
Even though the card is typically banned from use in events, in 2019, you could use it in events in the Standard Format, if you had a printed copy of the card's database entry so you know exactly what it does, and you have card sleeves so you can't tell it apart from other cards.2
