I was a Pokemon Trading Card Game Champ. They interviewed me at a trading convention in my town, where I was displaying my entire collection of the first set ever to be released. I even was on the radio...which....was something great for someone I know...

It's weird- when it was really big over here, no-one actually played the game; they just traded the cards. Seemed pointless to me to have the cards and not play, though.

Trading can be just as dangerous as battling if you don't know what your doing. I know this guy who cheated several people out of rare Charizards.

I don't know- it's a Charizard and it's sparkly, how would I be able to tell if it's first edition or not?

*runs off to check* Umm...no...no 1 with a circle...It's just got what all the other cards have, really, the picture and description and everything, except it's a sparkly. So, nope, not a first edition. ;D

Oh... Well it's still rare anyway....you've got a first print(Like mine ^_^), which makes it extra rare.

I was in about Grade 2 when Pokemon got really big. I got myself a Chansey (SHINY! Whee!) and was convinced I was on top of the world. I was never much for batling though...One time I had to give up a squirtle...my favourite card...so I just ran! Oooh! You must have been quite a celebrity Sean!

Yeah I was.... It was destined to be...
The first pack I ever opened had a rare Alakazam in it.
Yeah....I was great.....nobody could match my skills....
Why did I even retire....

Hasn't the hype died down a bit now, though?
