Quite possible you ave a legit game with a fake label. Or a repro, although if you did get it in 2000 (when the game came out, late 99 early 2000) then you have a VERY early repro. And one that seems well done, as many can't be completed due to faulty tech. But if you're battery is in the wrong place, THAT is the nail in the coffin. Nintendo and Pokemon use the same layout for all games with batteries. If it's a different position, it isn't authentic.

Basically another VERY similar label with the apostrophe half cut off. AND it mentions that it is a fully functioning bootleg.
