In reply to Jenny.

Dear Missus Jenny,

Hi there! I was reading this article not too long ago and had the good fortune to stumble across your tale! I was, for lack of a more imaginative phrase, feeling very sad that day, and I’d just like you to know that your anecdote really brightened my day 🙂 I used to play Pokemon all the time with my late friend at the local recreational center, and it makes me happy to know that others were able to experience something similar 🙂

I know that you may not even be able to find this message, but if by some serendipitous event you come across it, just know that if there’s ever anything you need, I’d be happy to be of service 🙂

Sincerely,
Spooky

P.S. – I hope that nothing so sad as to make tears grace your cheeks ever did happen.

Earliest memory… I think it is opening my basic card pack and finding a holographic Charizard. That was a pretty remarkable scene from my childhood

I am currently 15, but my first TCG experience was in the 1st grade. I made friends with some people who liked Pokemon cards, but I didn’t have any because my parents didn’t quite approve of Pokemon. So my friends gave me some of the duplicates they had (a lot of commons, 2 or 3 rares, and some uncommons, then a BUNCH of energies) and most were base set cards. I was stoked: Pokemon cards! I almost got them taken away, but eventually my parents bought me a theme deck of EX FireRed and LeafGreen. I loved having cards of my very own, and I’ll never forget what it felt like to hold brand new cards in my hands. Now, every time I go shopping at Wal-Mart with my mother, I get some kind of TCG pack – not usually theme decks anymore – and open them excitedly in the car on the way back home.

My first experience… In 2010, (I’m 13) My cousin gave me all of the Base Set cards he had because he had this condition that made him have seizures often, and they didn’t know if he would live or die. I started collecting TCG because I remember him saying one time that he wanted to see every Pokemon card in the world, and I want him to see that, even if it might be impossible.

My very first memory is in my grandparents basement, my cousin gave me a good portion of his collection, including a foil Base Set Charizard. It’s too bad I lost about half of them when I moved :/

My favorite memory of Pokemon TCG is when me and my friends went to school and traded our cards before the teachers caught us and took them away. We always went into a corner and got our cards out and started to trade them.

I am 17, and probably the best memory is when I taught my sisters how to play. Lol. Although they didnt care for it, my cousin and I would play when we went to my grandmother’s house.

Well my first memory was in 98 or 99 I believe, it was on the corner of lefferts blvd and liberty ave queens NY. My aunt was taking me with her to work( she worked in the twin towers, which had its own little train station type thing that was awesome) so before we got on the platform for the train we went inside the corner store , and in the glass case at the register I saw something wrap in a foil like plastic with the pictures of , charizard , venasaur and Blastoise so I ask for one of Each Now that I think about it my Aunt was pretty awesome for that because at that time a pack of booster cost about $6.50. So that’s my first memory of pokemon tcg. I’m coming to terms that while pokemon is awesome , but I think I love it soo much because it reminds me of a time in my life when all my loved ones were alive and happy, and life was simple and easy( I was 8 playing with pokemon all day, it was a sweet life) but now I’m 22 and playing pokemon all day , its an awesome life, I hope if I have a child it can be part of his child hood as well lol
