Hello, I’m Adam from Indiana. I have been collecting for years now. Just started that eBay thing. My collection is mainly cards. Recently I got in contact with many artist and creators from Japan. Now I’m collecting prototypes.

I am from Evansville, Indiana. The prototypes I was referring too are the action figures they made in Japan. Hardcopy figures, from all stages of production. Basically whatever the artist kept.

Hello all!
New Member but an old collector. I’ve been collecting Pokemon cards since they came out back when I was in middle school. I used to have a rather large collection but sold a good majority of my cards to a few tourists from Japan (I live in the USA) who wanted to give it to their daughter. However, I’ve kept a few of my favorite pokemon but have focused my major collection on my top favorite: Gyarados. I’ve collected flats, cards, and stickers over the years and will post them soon in a new thread.
Thanks all! It’s great to be a part of this!

I can’t tell you how many years I’ve waited to meet someone named Azul Ryu! After all this time I’ve contemplated the perfect introduction.
Hello.

XD Thanks so much again. 
I thought it was a decent name for a Gyarados appreciator!

Hi guys my name is Karlo. I live in Melbourne city, Australia. I notice a few collectors on here are from Australia. Any melbourne guys? I collect English cards. Mainly wotc but will move onto more sets in the near future. I am 22 years old and loved the cards as a kid. Started collecting seriously 5 years ago but ran into some financial hardships so sold of the whole collection.
I have recently started collecting again and love it. I only have 9 cards in my collection (psa 10) but as my name says i am a 1 by 1 collector.
Hello to all and happy collecting!

Ya I would totally agree with that. It’s the best forum I’ve found. There are some great people on this forum all dedicated to pokemon card collecting. There are also a variety of individuals who have been here far longer than me and have tremendous knowledge on a broad range of pokemon cards including some extremely rare promos. Whatever your interested in collecting mainly this is a great place. Don’t be surprised if your interests expand from being on here 
mine definitely did
