Hello
So after finally giving in and starting to collect a set for myself I got around to buying a pokemon center ETB for perfect order. It was a bit pricey but sealed so gave it a go. One of the cards I got a few of was Salazzle but one of them seems off in colour and I was wandering if that was a bad sign since it was from marketplace?
In the photos I have posted two i got from individual packs was darker on the skin than this one (in the middle) by a lot that it stuck out. I am new to this (literally started about a 5 days ago) so I dont know if this can happen normally.

If the only thing off is the color slightly, then it’s probable that the cards are just from different print runs, with the darker ones having more ink and the lighter one just having slightly less ink. I notice this in phantasmal flames a lot with the Zacian and Ambipom IRS. Sometimes they look a bit dull which is just from different ink levels.

Not the best photo, but you can see the Zacian on the right is lighter than the 2 to the left.
