Hi, I’m Cain
I got into Pokemon back in the late 90’s when I worked in a comic book store and the TCG came out. I used to play every day during my lunch break against one of our regulars a county District Attorney. My fave deck to use was a Chansey based energyless stall deck.
My parents kept my cards for years and mailed them to me recently. I’ve started to play a bit with my 11 year old daughter. I collected from Base Set to Gym Heroes/Challenge.
I don’t have any fantastic cards left but some good ones. Best probably a couple 1st ed. Charmanders , Squirtles anda Bulbasaur, a couple redcheek Pikachu’s. Debating sending them to CGC mostly to protect them and verify them.
Happy to be here and glad the hobby is alive and well.

Great backstory and welcome to forum. I was tensing up in anticipation that your parents likely threw out your cards. Glad to know you still have them! Also great to hear you’re still playing and look forward to the next update.

Welcome @CainJames ! It’s so cool to hear that your parents kept your original cards and that they made their way back to you. The early days of Pokemon collecting was such a wonderful time.
Do you still collect now? Looking forward to seeing your collection sometime.

@CainJames Welcome! Glad to hear some of your childhood cards survived! No matter what they are, those hold a special place in your collection! At least for me!

Thanks! I don’t collect any more. I buy a random pack here and there but that’s about it. Right now I’m sifting through my old cards and trying to learn if I should send any away for grading.
