Thanks for making this video and showing your collection! I started by finding a random pokemon pack at a clothing store on sale for like $4. That made me start searching how to start a collection so I search RUclips then opened a TCG account one night and 4 hours later I was collecting all of Gen 1 pokemons. Its so much easier now with the internet. I really like the way your collecting unopened packs. Im going to start collecting packs like you.
Yeah the internet makes it so much easier to do anything! That’s a really cool starter story though, in the UK it’s hard to find pokemon in thrift stores or anything like that - it’s only official vendors or small card shops! Thanks man, sometimes I think the art on the packs are nicer than the cards 😅
Great vid brotha love looking at the old cards like the jungle eevee thos types of cards are my favorites as well great seeing them get the treatment they deserve
They are! I wish I had more of them but most are quite expensive to get these days! Ah latias buddies, I did a bit of googling and is it when it has the gold writing it means it’s the reverse? Glad mine looks real, thank you for confirming it!
@PokéTownsin 😅 Ah man, I missed my own shoutout! Well if you've got any more of the Holo Blastoise 👀 Appreciate the offer! Might have to take you up on it 💜
I found my childhood collection back in 2021. Kid me had a sick collection. I’ve been collecting again since I’ve found my collection. I do it my own way though. No sets, that’s boring. I chase WOTC holos STRICTLY. I don’t collect for monetary value. Do I have a good amount of cards worth a few hundred each, sure. But I don’t control that. I collect because I truly love the art and the vintage cards. It’s all about nostalgia. If there’s a high dollar card I’m after, I’ll wait and save for a while and grab it. It feels like I accomplished something. My cards hold memories and that’s why they are important to me. Pokémon is LIFE ❤
That’s amazing! Which one are you working towards now? The nostalgia is so good with the WOTC holos, do you have a favourite memory of when you packed one? Or took it to school? Or one that’s even been through the washing machine because you left it in your pocket from School? 😅 I agree, POKEMON IS LIFE!
@@PokéTownsinI’m chasing a shadowless blastoise right now! I’m trying to get the shadowless holos. I’ve got charizard, venusaur, gyarados, mewtwo, ninetails, hitmonchan and clefairy. I think my most nostalgic cards are this; My base set unlimited charizard because my mom bought it for me as a single back in 99. My base set unlimited blastoise that I pulled in our local mall back in 99 with my parents. Then my 1st and 2nd movie promo cards. We went to the local movie theater and my mom asked the box office guy if I can have each variation 😂 Sentimental value will always be the most important. As I keep collecting I will have memories of the years I got them and who I got them with.
I started out collecting again just going for vintage cards. Completed the Base set holos, still collectimg other sets, but i definetley have strayed a bit, falling into some fomo. Havent made terrible purchases but have made some impulse decisions for sure. Buying sealed products has def been fun but not worth it at all 😂😂
Yeah 100% opening boxes/bundles is not cost efficient in the slightest but it is definitely super fun in the moment. Have you collected base set unlimited? With nostalgia at play, are you going to pick up some of the new Team Rocket set expected in 2025?
Great video and a really nice collection. That Latias is a real card it's the reverse holo Lotias from Delta Species. Beautiful card and one i got to grab as well.
I have a favorite card artist, Shinji Kanda, and I thought it would be fun to start a binder collection of every card they illustrated for the pokemon tcg. They have a very distinct art style that I find really enjoyable. =)
@@EMShelley that’s amazing! If you find out I’d love to know so I can check them out! I really like shinji kandas work, the Paldea evolved magikarp is one of my favourites!
@@PokéTownsin lol that's the one! Shinji Kanda. Love their work! Don't know if I have a favorite card of theirs yet, but just bought some singles and their Slowbro from the Scarlet and Violet set is gorgeous!
The Latias is a reverse holo and has the gold letters because it’s a holo rare. I’m actually looking for a clean version of the regular holo for my delta species collection lol
I'm 40 years of age. As a teen when the Pokémon hype started i felt i was to old for that kids cartoon and everything involved. I collected soccer cards before but found that product to expensive and not available in my country. So a year ago to satisfy my collector itch i turned my focus to Pokémon because i love the art and the product is obviously easily available. I've spent like €2K on product in 2024. Only a few big hits (bubble Mew, gold Giratina, 151 Blastoise sir). My wife supports it as long as i spend what we can afford. My kids (young adult and teen) have no interest in this and both think i'm having a mid life crisis. 😂 I recently asked myself the question of how do i want to go forward with my collection. I wanted to try and masterset some binders when i started collecting but decided to get a glass cabinet to showcase my best hits and Eeveelution cards.
That's some great hits though! I feel like I have a similar story, I spent a similar amount! It's the same with my girlfriend, she is absolutely fine with it as long as it doesn't financially jeopardise any goals we have as a couple which is completely fair. I was trying to convince my family about Pokémon over the Christmas period when I was visiting and I'm sure they felt similarly about it as your kids! I'm a hybrid of liking the expensive cards for the rarity and liking them for nostalgia but if it's expensive and I don't like the Pokémon/artwork I have no interest in chasing it - would rather have a cool artwork that I can display than a Surging Sparks Pikachu SIR for example. Are you a big eeveelutions fan too?
@@PokéTownsin I have the same mindset with expensive cards where i don't like the artwork that much. Like the Greninja from TWM. I don't even know what's going on on that card. I would'nt mind hitting it but sure not chasing. And yes, i'm a big eeveelutions fan.
100% is a slippery slope. I’ve found myself just picking up cards I like the artwork of now after flicking through set lists, definitely more cost efficient than trying to pack them! Don’t get me wrong, opening packs is a really fun way to collect but for a small timer it all adds up and you end up missing out on holidays! 😂
The fomo is strong and it can be hard to avoid. Slow burn is the way unless you've got absurd cash to spend, or are a professional seller. Collect over time.
Yeah, it kept pulling me back into ripping packs. I think you’ve got to get burnt like I did from pack ripping to really slow down 😅 luckily I’m a bit wiser to it now 👍🏼
I grade with sgc because I like getting my cards back in under 5 days and they gem at a 42% 10 rate making them by far the toughest grader. but it really sucks they raised grading fees from 9 bucks to 12 bucks I may have to switch to cgc
Pulled the Pikachu EX from my first SS box - would honestly rather have the Milotic. Edit: Loving your collection. I feel like we've got really similar taste in card art.
Yeah me too, pikachu has hype because well.. pikachu 😅 milotic, ceruledge and skarmory were the ones I really wanted from SS! Thank you, glad you enjoyed and appreciate the support!
@@PokéTownsin The Ceruledge IR is so awesome. Actually managed to pull 2 skarmory IRs, which I'm quite happy with. I'm hoping the set becomes more affordable after the next restock, because I really want to crack open a couple more boxes and hopefully pull the Milotic. But for now I'll settle for chasing the Squirtle and Bulbasaur IRs in SCR.
It's definitely not about the money. I don't consider myself a collector, I appreciate the nostalgia and some of the cards look sick. My collection is mostly celebrations set because they're cheap as hell and remind me of my childhood. My fav card is the entei promo reverse holo you got from the movie.
It’s definitely artwork and nostalgia over rarity for me. I’ve also just googled and reminded myself of that entei promo card, it’s so beautiful I might just have to pick one up! Do you own one?
I got my collection when I was around 8. It was handed down to me from my step brother. My dad divorced from my step mum and he just gave the collection to me . I have my favourite card 1st edition Blaine’s moltres graded at a 4 but I love that card. I also have a battered base set zard, I don’t think it’ll even get a psa 1 but I will try 😂
Oh wow that’s a crazy hand me down! Have you collected ever since? I’d grade it and HOPE for a PSA 1 over a 3/4. They sell for much more, also means that card was definitely loved when it was pulled so there is some sentiments there!
@ I collected around 2008 but only a few as It was quite expensive at the time. But now I plan to grade my old collection. Next card on my list to buy is Japanese mewtwo strikes back promo in a 10. I do keep having to tell myself, “I am a collector and not an investor” It’s quite overwhelming coming back into this hobby but it is fun
Ive got a handful or more top chase cards from different sets. But honestly my crown zenith collection is my absolute favorite. Its the set that got me back into Pokemon. And just brought back that nostalgia for me. But i also love Charizard so i try to collect sets that have him in it as well like PF, BS, OF etc. im 40 yrs old so Gen 1 is definitely my nostalgia Pokemon
Gen 1-3 is what I resonate with most as I believe the base set unlimited were still available when I got into it so gen 1 hype was still there for me. Crown zenith is such an amazing set, if I were to open packs strictly hunting chases it would be zenith for sure! What’s your favourite card you have?
@@PokéTownsin oh man I don't know Price wise I'd say Paldea Evolved Magikarp and Paldean Fates Charizard SIR Favorite card nostalgia wise my original base set Dragonair #018/102 Favorite Artwork Mewtwo VStar CZ Own all of them
@ your collection is the real deal, some serious collecting! that magikarp is one of my favourites I don’t own yet, need to get in before it goes super crazy 😅
@@PokéTownsin I've got a few other bangers some are here on my YT channel others are posted on my TikTok. I still have to make vids for the Magikarp and stuff I've just been busy
@@ItZBIGHAM Nice man, I'll check those out! You've gained a sub for the mega collection! You should do a grading submission vid with all these bangers!
Exactly, have patience, make more money and wait to get that next card you have your eye on. People need to stop feeling like they are in a rush. Put down all social media and just collect peacefully and slowly. It feels great when you attain a card you’ve been after for a while.
@@stevengraham8841 if you go on his channel, then his website in his channel description. There should be a section where you can buy ‘Pokerev Packs 6.0’. They might be sold out as they’ve been out a while but he tends to rerelease them every month/couple months.
Im collecting on a budget. I got back in with Surging Sparks and I went a bit crazy too, but i have a plan moving forward about how to use my limitted budget most effectively. For Prismatic Evolutions I managed to get preorders for 5 ETBs (At MSRP). Im going to leave all 5 sealed. I will likely seĺl of 4 of them before the booster bundle releases when stock is really hard to find and use the cash to buy the announced Super Premium Collection to do the same with. I wont be opening much Prismatic at first . Im just putting away in my sealed collection. Buying more than I need and using the profit from the overage to pay for my sealed boxes for the PC and singles I want long term or for grading plays. I will wait for collection boxes like blooming waters, sea and sky and such to rip my own packs. They seem to be pretty available and dont often have any long term collector value beyond the price of the sealed packs inside so they seem like the most logical for rips. I did preorder 4 poster Collections as well. Ill probably rip those to kill the desire to rip more collectables boxes. I likely buy a binder collection for this one too after release cause I think the binder looks nice. If you plan ahead like this and sell the playable cards you dont want or have doubles off it makes the hobby much more affordable.
That’s a great way to do it! Building your personal collection with profit from investing is the dream scenario. I wasn’t lucky enough to get any PE on preorder apart from the binder collection because I like the binder and it was the only thing left available to preorder! I’m not that versed in playing the game so struggle to know which cards to sell without googling! I also really like the holo patterns on the ace specs so I don’t mind just collecting them 😅 What’s your favourite card you’ve gotten/means the most to you?
@@PokéTownsin Not the most expensive card I own but the Stained Glass Aticuno, Motres and Zapdos Sun amd Moon Promo is the my favorite card. I really like the Legendary Birds and its such a pretty card.
@ why not now? Me and my oldest son started going to locals about 2 years ago and that was the first time I had ever played IRL. I started and learned the basics by playing the mobile version.
