Your Most Nostalgic Card

It’s gotta be the Primeape from Jungle for me. I remember being so happy I had just gotten a bunch of base set cards from some packs my parents bought me, and I ran down the street to my buddy’s house, only for him to show off some new Jungle stuff. He showed me his Primeape and I thought it was such a cool card, I think I traded like 3 non-holo rares for it (yes, probably not my best negotiation one was a Dugtrio, don’t remember the other two). It was also the first card I ever actually traded for, and I still have it in my personal collection binder

I wrote this back in 2022 in this thread and it still rings true. While I am a huge base set fan since that is what I started out with as a kid, I remember getting more Jungle packs and putting them into binders, and I absolutely fell for this card when I saw it. I love the Jungle card in general: a great set idea and brilliant colors and background artworks (particularly for the commons and uncommons).
