It's a fake, unfortunately, but a decent one! The real version of this card has black text instead of gold. Also note that there is an accent missing over the e in Pokémon.
I actually made a mistake, the name text on the real card does shift from gold to black depending on the angle of the light. But the accent missing is a dead giveaway.
It's hard to say where he got them. This set is from 2007 when the value of Pokémon cards was well known so fakes were extremely prevalent.
It looks like you're wondering if those cards have any value. Generally speaking, if it's a First Edition, Holographic or Promo card it's worth looking into. Take a look at our [Pokemon card evaluation guide](https://www.reddit.com/r/pokemoncardcollectors/wiki/evaluationguide) to see how to determine the value of your cards. Always know the value of every card you have before selling to avoid getting low-balled.
