Pretty straightforward question! For those born after pokemon’s release, what was the set out at the time?

Mine was Base Set 2!

For all of you older than pokemon, enjoy your midlife crisis

Thanks for upsetting me by making me consider the fact people were not all born before Pokémon.

My girlfriend’s coworker stopped at our house for a little bit. He saw my Black and White Versions displayed and told me those were his first games.
