Happy 30 years of Pokémon everyone!🥳
Wow, where has the time gone?!
I was in 3rd grade when Pokemon came to America. At that age, I didn't have many friends. Pokemon was so popular when it hit America, that everyone around my age got into it. Trading cards, and trading in the Gamboy games; really opened me up to becoming more social with my classmates.
At 9 years old; I had a pretty big surgery. Looking through my binder of Pokémon cards kept me calm and motivated.
At 25 years old I sold my personal collection way too cheap and regretted it.
I've been collecting again ever since.
All theses later; I'm so incredibly thankful for the friends I've made during the journey! What an amazing and wild ride this has been!
Good luck to all my fellow trainers out there in your collecting, here's to another 30 years of friendship and memories!🎉🎊
