Pokemon cards have been around for nearly 30 years and there’s so many different kinds to collect. But did you know you could own the ‘rarest’ out there?
Pokemon cards were certainly a thing of the 90s.
First launched in 1996, the Japanese gaming franchise has since sold a whopping 34.1billion individual cards worldwide.
There might be a great deal of Pokemon cards already out there, but some are worth much more than others.
According to analysis by money.co.uk, the most valuable on the market is on sale for a staggering $2.4million (around £1.2million).
Now over on TikTok, one user holds “some of the rarest” Pokemon sheets of all time and people are losing their minds over it.
Posted by @Ryan’s_Cardhouse, who boasts 15,600 followers, he said in the caption: “It’s so cool to see the thought process and the trial and error that went into creating the first ever print of Pokemon.”
