To wit: Google searches for PokГ©mon cards, and Charizard card prices in particular, have gone up dramatically this year. These, along with first-edition cards, are what folks want the most right now. So, what is it that people are looking for? While there are a variety of different desirable cards at different price points - including newer cards - perhaps the most coveted types of cards are вЂњshadowless.вЂќ The term refers to early printings of PokГ©mon cards with no drop shadow propping up the artwork. I'm resleeving my base set atm and putting them in top loaders. The recent pokemon craze inspired me to go through all of my old cards.

вЂњI gave them away years ago and I donвЂ™t want to hear about my non-existent childrenвЂ™s nonexistent college fund,вЂќ Twitter user Matthew told Polygon. Did they give the cards away? Throw them out? An incredible number of people Polygon spoke to recently are kicking themselves right now, because they can remember the exact moment a fortune might have slipped out of their hands. Some are still sifting through stuff, with no clue where their old collection might have gone. Based on conversations with dozens of fans who at one point owned PokГ©mon cards, IвЂ™m hardly alone in this. I never took the extra step of putting my cards in sleeves or binders, nor did I try and keep track of my cards. While collecting anything always comes with the distant promise of one day having an asset that has appreciated in cost, the sheer ubiquity of old PokГ©mon cards made it easy to be careless with them as well.

We have no idea where this stash might be now, or if we still have it, but still: WeвЂ™re looking.ДЄnyone else been going through their old Pokemon cards recently? /cRrlthPuXb- Mejet November 2, 2020

I recently called my mom up to see if there was a chance we might still have that giant bag of PokГ©mon cards I started collecting over a decade ago, when the Japanese monster-catching series first blew up in the states. While the transaction turned out to be a hoax, the fact anyone would go through the trouble of making fake PokГ©mon cards - or spend hundreds of thousands of dollars for a chance at a rare Charizard card - is emblematic of a larger trend in nerd spaces right now.Д®veryone is into PokГ©mon cards again - or at least, into the idea that they could make a good buck out of them. The thirst for PokГ©mon cards is so high, one group was willing to pay $375,000 this year for an unopened box of old trading cards. Rapper Logic, meanwhile, recently shelled out $183,000 for an old-school Charizard card. YouTuber Logan Paul has made headlines after buying a Charizard card for $150,000 from a collector who swears that even Justin Bieber is hounding him to buy those very same cards. But he was determined to get in there, given the PokГ©mon gold rush that is booming right now.

вЂњI couldnвЂ™t remember the code for the life of me,вЂќ Vidya recalled to Polygon in a Twitter message. HeвЂ™s still got the lockbox from his childhood, but thereвЂ™s a big problem.

All of these went into a metal lockbox that stayed with Vidya, even as he moved houses.ДЇast-forward to 2020. His dad traveled with the Air Force, and every so often heвЂ™d send back a pristine holographic-foil Charizard card from overseas. When Twitter user Vidya Research was a kid, he did what youвЂ™re supposed to do with collectibles: wrap them up so theyвЂ™re kept safe.
