I got back into Pokemon collecting for a bit during the pandemic, like many others . And boy it showed how fun and awesome collecting the original cards were in the late 90's/early 00's. Then with the 25th anniversary, they did a great job marketing it with special releases and a lot of hype!

I also went to a Pokemon TCG conference in Toronto last year, and it was amazing! There were around 10,000 people there. People of all ages, parents and kids, older collectors. It really showed the longevity and cultural brand power of Pokemon!
