What was the first card you ever got from your very first pack?

Surprisingly, mine was a Holographic Venusaur - got it in fourth grade. I had no idea how rare it was until somebody told me. I lost them all somewhere along the line though...

Well in 1st grade I got some free Pocket Monsters [about 1996-97] off my friend AJ. I only remember Poliwhirl out of the 4 cards he gave me. xD [A teacher took them away the same day and I stole them off her desk. >:/] The first pack of Pocket Monsters I bought I only remember holographic Smeargle, which I still have till this day.

My first english card was a holographic Kangaskhan [About erm...1998-99 I think] I bought in 3rd Grade. I loved Kangaskhan to death when I was a child~

I got a whole bunch at once. I remember having a Poliwrath, Sabrina's Porygon, Beedrill, Brock's Geodude, and Brock's Diglett somewhere in there. I'm sure there were a whole bunch more, though.

Oddish... The first pokemon I saw and then Pikachu. tongue.gif
It wasn't from a pack, I just saw it on display while shopping when I was wayy younger and it caught my eye and I'm like "WTF ITZ LIKE A WALKING WEED MMM.... SMOKE IT"
My first pack, can't remember... I got a jungle series box set of like 60 or whatever though and it had a Holofoil Vaporeon and I loved it but my mom took it since she said it was valuable. I ask for it for every Christmas and she still hasn't given it back... And I won't get it till she dies or something. :<

What, http://www.serebii.net/picture.php?TCG/Jungle/12-vaporeon.jpg? Pff, that's probably worth less than 5 bucks.

Mine was a tattered Base Set Sandshrew. Found it in the street in front of my daycare center.

Posted by: Wooper Jul 14 2007, 11:58 AM

Mine was a Charmander, one of the really old ones. I got a few after that, and traded a bunch, but I never traded that charmander <3

Posted by: MCRrock3r Jul 14 2007, 05:14 PM

Entei promo. My borther worked at a movie theater and after Pokemon 300 passed, brought home a bag of about 200+ Entei Promos

Posted by: BLC Jul 14 2007, 08:16 PM

I remember the first series of cards. My first card was one of those. Charizard to be exact. <3

Posted by: BidoofsAreShiney Jul 14 2007, 08:39 PM

I bought a deck to start with, so I dunno what my first card was, but my first holo was a Base Set Hitmonchan. cat.gif

Posted by: PEARL Jul 15 2007, 02:29 AM

I remember my first Rare was Kabutops (I cried when somebody bent the corner xD) and my first holo was probably Hitmonlee.

Posted by: Bosco Jul 15 2007, 01:52 PM

I don't remember. I think it was a Muk from a starter deck. cat.gif

Posted by: Emerald Wyvern Jul 15 2007, 02:15 PM

I don't know really. I think it was my Raupy.

Posted by: Candy Man Jul 15 2007, 10:53 PM

The holo Machamp you get in the starter deck. Then I got a Base Set holo Mewtwo.

Posted by: fensti Jul 18 2007, 10:22 PM

Holo Gyarados in the starter deck.

Along with a Beedrill, which I have 3 of now, all in the same deck. cat.gif

Posted by: Slash Jul 19 2007, 10:57 AM

Squirtle. Nothing special.

Posted by: Dee Jul 20 2007, 07:51 PM

Electric energy...xD

Posted by: Slash Jul 21 2007, 12:14 PM

How come everyone on here says their first card is some rare holographic card? Are you to ashamed to say you got a plain card? Because there's just something wrong with everyone having their first card be a rare holographic one.

Posted by: Matt Jul 23 2007, 03:28 PM

This is me being completely Serious. When I got my First booster pack I got the holographic Charizard. The one that was worth like $110 at that time. I'm dead serious. I went with my friends To go buy my first booster pack and when I got to his house They all opened the packs they had and they got some pretty good cards. I didn't expect much from mine when I started to open it. I got the usual Pokemon, Staryu, Squirtle, etc. But then I say the Charizard and I sat there for like 5 seconds in silence. After which I ran home to put it in my binder and was happy the rest of the day. After a month or so I showed it to some people in my class. All of a sudden my card turns up MISSING and thyus resulting into an Angry Matt. People told me who did it but the person wouldn't come clean so I had no real hardcore proof. I think I cried when I lost it. Your Ridicule is welcome, I can understand how lame it is to cry after losing a card.

Posted by: Einherjar Jul 23 2007, 04:19 PM

I forget what my first card was. I think it was like... Squirtle or Nodoran Male or something... Or the Mew Card from the movie theater. That was awesome.

Posted by: Grave Jul 24 2007, 12:20 AM

Holographic Charmander. I still have it too. Lots of memories with it.

Posted by: Migzz Jul 25 2007, 06:31 PM

I pulled a foil Nidoking from my first pack. And ended up trading it for an uncommon Jynx...

my first card was a holo charizard, but my favorite ended up being a holo kabutops until i traded with MCR for a holo kingdra a few years ago.

Posted by: Darksword Aug 2 2007, 05:34 PM

I remember I got my first pack in first grade and in the pack I got a holo venusaur. I was so exited. I even remember the place opened the pack. Back then a pack was worth like 50 dollars in sentimental value to me.

Posted by: Terry the Pupil Sep 9 2007, 08:52 AM

I think my first card was pikachu.

Posted by: Oblivion Sep 22 2007, 09:45 PM

Ancient Mew Card

My Cousin who introduced me to Pokemon gave me that card for Christmas...

I still have it to *glances at it*

Posted by: Jason Sep 23 2007, 03:17 PM

A shiny Charizard. Which was, like, uber rare way back when.

And then the neighborhood kids scammed by sister out of it.xD

Posted by: TBLLuis Sep 23 2007, 08:14 PM

a pikachu, ill go find a pic later

Posted by: Suicune619 Sep 26 2007, 04:43 PM

I can't remember, it's been so long... Probably something common.

Posted by: Hiro Sep 27 2007, 08:21 PM

First card? The first one was a Squirtle, which was the first I got out of pack... I think my first rare was a Blastoise (Strangely enough, I got Squirtle's full evolution chain in my first pack)

Posted by: Swordsalmon Sep 29 2007, 03:05 PM

My first card...was a Doduo. I remember vividly that day. My older brother bought a pack of cards, and allowed my little sister and I to each choose a card to keep. (Minus the Raichu he got in that pack, of course. XD) My sister chose Pikachu like anyone would, but I took a fancy to Doduo and chose it. I still have it, too.

Posted by: ChicaPika Dec 22 2007, 07:00 AM

My first was a movie promo mew. I rememer my mom NEVER let me do anything associated with Pokemon when I was that age, and it still fascinated me. I was at Border's (which had just opened) and the lady just gave me like, 4 or 5 of them and my mom was all like "But..." and the lady ignored her it was so funny! That's also where I got my ancient mew and movie mewtwo.

Then all of the rest seemed to just magically appear..... I have like, the entire base, jungle, fossil, rocket, gym heroes, gym challenge, base 2, and almost all the Neos complete.

Posted by: Coolio Dec 26 2007, 03:33 PM

Hmm....My first cards were in a base set pack and of them, I remember Pikachu, Seel, and Machop...x3

Posted by: shamanx21 Jan 11 2008, 04:22 AM

Oh god, nostalgia. Um, my first cards were in the Jungle Starter deck with Vaporeon. It became my fave pokemon for like 5 years. sadly, the card got stolen a week after I got it.....

Posted by: DannyToge Jan 11 2008, 08:16 AM

my sister begged my mom to get us a pack each when we were younger. I got cruddy ones like weedle and stuff so yeah my first one was weedle.

My sister was a shiny alakazam :0

i was so jelous and tried to trade with her loads even when i had shinys myself.

she still said no.

but then one day she traded it for a common eevee.

i was like why!?!?!

she said "coz i like eevee"

Now she realised she got ripped off but she still has tht eevee card in her purse

pretty touchy stuff.

Posted by: ruhi18 Jan 11 2008, 01:41 PM

I got a lot of cards: Dark blastoise, pikachu, mewtwo and some others.

Posted by: Cacodemon Jan 11 2008, 02:15 PM

I think it was an item card or a Pokémon with the 3D art, but it's been so long, and I can only clearly remember my other merchandise (like figurines, plush toys, and other tchotchke). My first holofoil was Raichu (in the first pack) and my first promo was Mew (the card dealer at the swap meet was pretty much giving them away), and the first movie promo card I got was Moltres. Unfortunately, I gave every one of them to my brother's friend, so no chance of raking in the cash years from now.

Posted by: JaKhajay Jan 12 2008, 01:58 PM

My first card was the movie promo pikachu, my first rare card was the pokedoll from the base set (the trainer card) pokemon-wise it was Electrode

Posted by: Archangel 1602 Jan 12 2008, 03:43 PM

I had two starter decks for my firsts, so whatever was in those.

Posted by: shamanx21 Jan 12 2008, 08:15 PM

I never got lucky with those damned booster packs. I would usually have to trade a bunch of decent card for one rare/holo card. I only got lucky with my shinfy markless jungle clafable (it had no series mark, that little flower thing)

funny 'cause I was HELLA lucky with Yu-Gi-Oh, lol

Posted by: CCM Jan 18 2008, 03:40 AM

My first card was that promo mew. They gave it with a film they sold here in Spain, and I suppose in other parts of the world

Posted by: Sceptile100 Jan 20 2008, 12:38 AM

my first card was a gold Charizard, ahh memories.

Posted by: Cam Jan 21 2008, 07:38 PM

original Gyrados and Aerodyactl

Posted by: Seadragon Jan 23 2008, 06:11 PM

Mine was a dark Charizard I won as a prize.

Posted by: blax8192 Jan 27 2008, 06:30 PM

a tattered charmander i got from some of the "big kids" at my daycare like 9 years ago lol

Posted by: Cam Jan 29 2008, 01:57 PM

speaking Of big kids first time i wanted to pokemon battle some they beat and said I had to give them my only two Stars, luckly I escaped with my cards.

Posted by: Seadragon Feb 1 2008, 06:28 PM

My second cards where Celebi and Suicune for seeing the Celebi movie, but they're in Portuguese since I saw the movie when I was taking a vacation in Brazil again. (What? I was born there.) The third one I got was an Entei I "borrowed" from my friend, but he moved and I didn't get the chance to give it back.

Posted by: Rym Feb 7 2008, 01:15 PM

Wow, this thread brings back memories of being in middle school. O_o.gif They had to ban pokemon cards on the bus because all the trading and battling got so crazy. My first card was a bulbasaur. I didn't stay interested in the tcg for very long though, I always enjoyed the gameboy route more. I think I still have all my cards somewhere at my parents house... I'll have to look next time I'm home, now I'm curious to see what I still have.

Posted by: Darksword Feb 7 2008, 11:48 PM

one time a gang of "big kids" stole my blastoise, gyarados, pidgeot, and a few others! I wasn't sure who did it so I never got them back. now my original set is complete except for a blastoise and an alakazam. I also need to replace some base set two's woth some base set one's...

Posted by: suzyk Feb 8 2008, 04:40 PM

The only card I've ever had was a Lugia card... I think I gave it away, too. Not much of a TCG fan.

Posted by: TorreCool Feb 16 2008, 10:28 AM

My first car was a Pikachu I get it from an automat irritated.gif!

Posted by: Lucius Feb 17 2008, 09:21 PM

An Eevee. A bloody Eevee form a Jungle Booster Pack.
I was a little miffed when I looked at it, until I saw that
I had a Holographic Mr. Mime.

Posted by: Leki Mar 12 2008, 05:59 PM

Hm... I THINK it was a scratched up Blastioise I got at school..... :|

Posted by: Letan Mar 17 2008, 07:40 PM

I got a booster pack first, from my local video store (the store's gone now). I could care less about what else was in it, but I do remember my first rare: that holographic Charizard with 120 HP. Man I loved that card. Then some distant cousin of mine came over sometime after (and the only time he came, I've sworn to bash his face in if I see him again) and since I was young at the time, he convinced me that his Ditto was better, so we traded. Ugh, less than a week after, I got another Ditto. But far after, I got some better cards that I've liked more. Though, sometime I plan on selling my cards, since I got lots.

*i wasn't sure if the time zone had been over i think not if it was im sorry mods*

My first one was a Magmar Electabuzz combo from going to see the movie in theatre, it was so cool cause i think the electabuzz was shiny.

Posted by: Zadion Apocalaya Apr 3 2008, 04:24 AM

My first card was actually my most treasured one. A holographic Blastoise. I think it was a long time ago though...I'm not even sure where all my old Pokemon cards are anymore. Kinda stopped collecting like three years ago...Got into Yu-Gi-Oh instead.

Posted by: Ed Uchiha Apr 19 2008, 11:21 AM

Bulbasaur, but now I collect Yu-Gi-Oh! cards now.

Posted by: axiswarrior Apr 23 2008, 11:29 AM

My first card...I remember! It was my 7th birthday. I got a Gameboy Color, Pokemon Gold, and a pack of cards. it was some 20 dollar set or something like that, but it had a Holographic Charizard and a Holographic Blastoise. I took the Charizard, but I had to give Blastoise to my brother. Jerk. I'm not sure if it was the first card from that pack, or the first one I put in my binder, but I still consider it my first. I still have it, too.

Posted by: MetalHealth Apr 23 2008, 07:04 PM

i dont remember my FIRST card i ever got but i remember my first rare/holo card was a blastoise i got out of some booster packs i got for christmas

Posted by: chimcharlover Apr 24 2008, 03:48 AM

Posted by: Shiny Darkrai May 10 2008, 11:03 PM

I got about 50 packs of pokemon cards back when it just started. SO they were hella cheap and I was 5... I dont really remember what came first, I still have ALL my cards. It was either a Rare Arcainine or a rare Aerodactyle

Posted by: Justbman May 11 2008, 09:51 AM

I believe I first pulled a rocket charmander.. but I distinctively remember my caterpie, because I thought he was cater pie

Posted by: Lug May 15 2008, 01:12 PM

my first card was given to me by my cousin
it was a dragonair

but first card, that meant anything, from a pack, was a mewtwo sealed.gif

Posted by: Destinii Haruya May 17 2008, 10:17 AM

A promo Celebi from the 4th movie. Played a cute cartoon of Celebi eating the berries from the movie if you swiped it in your GBA E-Reader. I remember swiping it so much it was hardly playable for swipe marks. ^_^.gif

Posted by: Akane May 18 2008, 07:27 PM

I think it was Pikachu. Seems generic enough...

What's sad is that you counted them individually.

I realized that this topic should be pinned. I'm doing so.

Posted by: MayAlltheWay May 27 2008, 08:09 PM

a Portuguese Charizard.!

Posted by: Yoshikin May 30 2008, 11:16 AM

My first ones were a Jungle Set Sandshrew and Jungle set Jigglypuff. I got them both at the same time, which is why those are my 1st.

Posted by: Shade Jun 10 2008, 07:57 PM

My first card was a pikachu. In fact all the cards I had was some sort of pikachu because that was the only poke'mon that I ever cared about back then.

Posted by: Etnie Jun 10 2008, 08:48 PM

My very first card was a weezing, i found him in a ballpark on a bench (how i discovered pokemon)
first holo was pidgeot (it was a fake though)
first legit holo was a rocket's charizard (loved him)

Posted by: sushikitty Jun 10 2008, 08:52 PM

I got my first pokemon card sometime before second grade out of a sticker vending machine at a mall. It was a Magmar my brother got an Articuno so I traded for it since Magmar was his favorite pokemon back then.The last time I saw those cards they were being swept into a dustpan.Now I only have a Ponyta,Rapidash,and a Mudkip my brother gave me because he got the exact same one in the same pack except it was holographic.

Posted by: Nikki the Pheonix Jun 11 2008, 11:35 AM

The first card I ever got was a Growlithe from the first series that came out.

Posted by: TCGplayer Jul 7 2008, 06:05 PM

Mine was a squirtle from one of the first generations of cards or whatever then later i got a holo charizard second addition from one of my brothers friends who had holo charizard holo blastoise and holo venasaur my bro chose charizard and gave him to me still have him and never wont.

QUOTE(Einherjar @ Jul 23 2007, 03:19 PM) *
I forget what my first card was. I think it was like... Squirtle or Nodoran Male or something... Or the Mew Card from the movie theater. That was awesome.


Yeah mew from the movie theater was mine happy.gif

I got a lot of the movie theater cards but they went missing. Actually half of them ended up turning into my bros' "art projects" with a sharpie and scissors XD

thats ok really, i've never been good at the card game.

Posted by: Squirtlecuno Jul 8 2008, 05:45 PM

Did you ever wonder why I love Squirtle so much? Now you know.

squirtle.gif squirtle.gif First card: Squirtle. squirtle.gif squirtle.gif

Posted by: Pokii Jul 10 2008, 05:13 PM

My first card was Ryhorn. It looked so freaking cool! XD

Posted by: Starcoffin Jul 10 2008, 06:03 PM

My very first card was a ponyta, I loved it to death, carried it with me anywhere. I have seen 40 year old bills with less rips and bends...... lol

Currently I have a full set of the orginal base series, all first edition. They are all in protective sleaves, cleaned off, and vacuumed sealed. Someday they will be worth A LOT, Someday..... I hope...................

Posted by: Carmani Sep 29 2008, 07:05 PM

The mine was a holograph scyther from the jungle eddition.

I stayed ten minutes jumping.. dumblook.gif

The second one was a vileplume ¬¬. I never jumped again since i got the scyther. =/.

Posted by: Piogre the Mighty Oct 14 2008, 10:16 PM

Oh, I remember this too! Mine was an Onix card, that I got in second grade from my brother. Since he was in fourth grade, and could get Pokémon cards, he had quite the card collection. However, I was the much bigger fan of Pokémon, so I would do favors for him and etc. so he would give me more cards. Back then I only liked getting my favorite Pokémon - I didn't really follow the game that much. But boy did I collect them. When I grew bored of them all I gave them all away... don't know where they all went though.

Actually, this is quite funny. Being the relic I am, there was a promotion on the back of those Lunchables when I was a kid, and there were cutout Pokémon cards on the back of the box, with like a picture on the front and a little description on the back. Until I saw an actual Pokémon card (the first one I saw was a Staryu... I remember that vividly as well), I thought that those were the actual Pokémon cards, lol.

Charmander

Someone gave me a fighting energy. I traded it for a Charmander, Charmeleon, and a Hitmonchan. I... had a way words.

Posted by: ShivasDisciple Oct 18 2008, 09:46 AM

My first card well first rare was a Jungle series Sycther I was sp happy and stupid a that age I trade it for like 10 cards which were like all Rattata and other commons....

Posted by: Flamer Oct 24 2008, 11:07 AM

The first cards I bought where one of those starter decks. I think it was the gras/water one. I've given most of them to my sister, but I kept the holographic Garaydos.

Posted by: Dhofer99 the rock master Oct 24 2008, 12:43 PM

my first card was a jolton then i got evee thats all i remember

Posted by: Zoreta Mar 29 2009, 10:11 PM

My first cards were from a vending machine at a bowling alley. They were all from the Rocket set; meowth, magikarp, and mankey. I still have the mankey and I think I have the meowth, but the magikarp is lost somewhere in my room.

Posted by: Muyomi Mar 30 2009, 01:25 AM

I never bought any cards noes.gif I don't know where to find them.

I know, I suck! shakefist.gif

Posted by: xelao Mar 30 2009, 01:28 AM

I never even knew where pokemon cards came from. In first grade I stole them from the person sitting next to me.

I got a gloom, charmander, and oddish. I still have them in a box around here somewhere.
The first time I bought a booster (holy crap, 6 bucks for cards.) I got a Latios EX
another time I bought cards, I got a Latias. <3

Posted by: CharrMistKanako Mar 30 2009, 05:10 AM

I'm not really sure,but I think my first card was a Pidgey.

i think it was a ponyta, or a charmander, I don't remember well

Posted by: shurtugal Apr 15 2009, 04:22 PM

My first card was a pikachu that my father found somewhere. ^^ pikachu.gif


Posted by: Volmise Apr 17 2009, 09:59 AM

My very first card was a Pichu from the Neo Genesis set. The pack I opened was shuffled differently from the rest of the packs, so instead of having a common staring at you when you first open the pack I had a Holographic Pichu.

To this day I still own and treasure that card.

Posted by: kenguro Apr 26 2009, 04:32 PM

My first pokemon card was a little pidgey, and also a machop
I still have that two in my deck.. I guess they're for good luck on tournaments grin.gif

Posted by: Windchaser54321 Apr 27 2009, 06:12 PM

My very first card? I think it was an Eevee, a plain old regular Eevee all on its lonesome when my sister gave me one out of pity, I think it was.

The funny thing is, all of my cards were given to me out of pity. Obviously, I don't have many cards.

Posted by: Beru Apr 28 2009, 09:52 AM

Hm, I can't really tell what my very first card was because I bought a Boosterpack from the very first Collection. I only know that I got a Mewto Card in that Boosterpack xD Well, this should be over 6 years now and I still got that Card ^//^ I guess its kind of a lucky charm.

Posted by: Infinite Apr 28 2009, 09:57 AM

I thiiiink it was a Bellsprout - at least that is the earliest card I remember...

Posted by: WilliamP Apr 30 2009, 07:17 AM

I'm not to sure, but I think it was a Poliwag.

Posted by: Youko May 1 2009, 02:04 AM

Pikachu! xD The anime was just beginning to get popular and I lost a tooth. Wow, that was forever ago, but uh- the Tooth Fairy had given me a dollar, and someone at some carnival we went to was selling pokemon cards, and so I was able to buy a Pikachu card! Oh, I remember that day so fondly~ I was thrilled! 8D

Posted by: magnepass17 May 1 2009, 04:10 AM

i really don't remember but i think it was a bulbasaur

Posted by: Rika24 May 10 2009, 01:50 PM

I think my first was monkey that I got from my friend long ago grin.gif

Posted by: Leila May 15 2009, 01:03 PM

I didn't buy any packs until I had been collecting for a long time- my friends gave me their duplicates, or I would win them playing other games. My first ever card was Gastly, though. I remember, because I won it when I was playing some card game waiting for my mom, and it was the first pokemon card I had ever seen.
In sixth grade I carried a geodude around in my pocket XD

Posted by: Artui May 16 2009, 07:14 AM

My first card was a Mismagius. heybaby.gif But only because this one girl on my bus was giving away rare cards. I did this before I got to much into Pokemon, so I missed out on a Dielga card. facepalm.gif

Posted by: damo279 May 16 2009, 07:41 AM

Holo Blastiose from my first ever base set pack. Came swimming pools. Then my 'friend' convinced me it was smart to trade it for his mewtwo, which was then stolen. But i have another of both now so im happy

I now have 2,362 cards, but have stopped collecting..... now i just play....

'02 or '03, apparently.

Posted by: fritchie Jun 4 2009, 08:51 PM

i dont remember my very first card but remember the best card from the first pack, i got a rare Dragonite, holographic. I still have all my old pokemon cards. I only collected the original 152 pokemon, though. I like those the best, when they could fit them all in a "rap" song, lol.

Posted by: darthgohan1 Jun 5 2009, 09:00 PM

My first ever card was a holographic Zapdos which sat on top of a booster pack I got when I was about nine years old. I don't remember anything else that was in that pack. But I still have the Zapdos.

Mine was holo Blastoise from the Base set. I still have it and I built a water type themed deck around it.

Technically my first card was the promotional movie Electabuzz that you got
for going to see Pokemon: The First Movie.

However, right after the movie ended a kid walked up to me and asked to trade with
me. He wanted to trade his promotional movie Mewtwo and I said yes.

That card was the frist card I had more than a couple hours and to this day it is one
of my favorite cards. I still own it as well hehehe.

trainer: Brock, Pokedex, and a Japanese Sabrena.
Pokemon:Lt. Surge's Rattata, Brock's Onix, Blaine's Growlithe, another growlithe (looks like it's laying on it's back in some grass), a Zubat (looks like it's in some fire), an adorable Vulpix, an adorable Eevee (chasing some butterflies, in a flowery field) and that mew card you get from the first Pokemon movie case.

I got my first pack of Pokemon cards for Christmas in 1999. It was from the Fossil set, and I had a holo Kabutops, but I lost it. noes.gif I still have a bunch of cards from that pack, though. I think I'm just missing that one.

Posted by: Zalfor Aug 29 2009, 07:51 PM

I remember mine was a Venesaur =D Unfortunately I sold it a long time ago for far less than what's it worth now probably. I still got most of my old first edition rares and other cards though, so I'll have to look through them all sometime.

Posted by: Interact Aug 29 2009, 08:41 PM

Mine was a beedrill lol when my older sister was younger she got pushed down in the playground at school the person gave her the card to say sorry and she gave it to me when she got home i was like 5 and diddnt even know there were such things as pokemon cards lmao, after that i started getting some really good ones and i think i had a holo ampharos that i wouldnt let go of for days lol, wonder where all them cards went too....... o.o

Posted by: markjw86 Aug 31 2009, 02:19 AM

My first card was a Charmeleon that was packaged in with an issue of Nintendo Power. I'm pretty sure I either lost it or traded it, can't remember.

My first pack, back in April 1999, I believe had an Electrode. I think I might still have it, but I haven't checked my old cards in so long.

Posted by: Time Guardian Aug 31 2009, 06:22 AM

I don't quite remember everything that came in the first booster pack that I gotten, which was from the Base Set, but I do remember my rare card that came in it was a Holo Raichu. I think it might still be the same holo Base Set Raichu that I have now,.

Posted by: Wildstorm Sep 1 2009, 11:46 AM

I got my first card when I was in grade one. My best friend brought a whole bunch of cards to school and showed me some of them. Then she gave me my first card. A remoraid. I think I still have that card somewhere.

Posted by: GirlCalledBob Oct 26 2009, 01:15 PM

Mine was the Pikachu promo card from the first movie. My brother almost died from jealousy, even though he got Dragonite which I think is cooler... I wouldn't trade, though, just to annoy him. Heh.

But I still have my Pikachu. His name is Dusty and he's currently blue tacked to my book shelf, because I'm pathetic like that.

Posted by: Silent Soul Oct 26 2009, 10:52 PM

I remember having a poliwag, sanshrew, and ninetales when I was like... 5 maybe? 4?

I'm not sure what happened to them, but when I found all my pokemon stuff again, the first card I found was my Ponyta.

So, ponyta it is!

But he probably did a larger percentage of them...

This takes me back to the good old days! ;P

I was walking with my dad in the mall and i saw something blue on the ground and it was shiny.

I went over to the parking area and i was ready to go.

I picked it up and it was....

A LATIAS EX!

Latias was my 2nd fav pokemon so i had to keep it.

THE END!

Posted by: Synchronise Dec 16 2009, 06:34 PM

I don't remember what my very first card is (edit: since it's been at least 8 or 9 years since I started playing), but I do remember this: one birthday, some odd years ago, I had bought a booster and was hanging onto it, waiting until my party to open it.

I did, and the last card in the pack was a Lugia. This was about the time I had seen the second film and spent ALL of my time in class just drawing Lugia, so I was ecstatic.

Truly a magical moment.

My first was a mewtwo. I can't remember if it was shiny but I think it might have been. I got it from a friend though so my first one from a pack, rather a deck was I guess Swampert.

Posted by: ObiWanKenobi Jan 21 2010, 03:29 PM

I remember the dawn of time of these cards. They didn't sell them anywhere nearby, so I bought them in a city. I was so excited to have my first pack-- I had a Jynx and a Haunter, and I don't remember what else. I was so friggin' proud that I brought them to school and started trading. I was only in third grade, and this was before they were banned at our school. I traded one of my cards for a "fake" card (they were pretty and it was a Pidgeotto, so I thought it was a good trade, for some reason). Then they were banned, and I was sad.

Those were the golden days of my childhood.

I received my first card from these guys two years older than me in primary school and it was a base set charmeleon and then I started collecting the cards from the original sets because I didn't like how they printed the Nintendo printed cards. So I started playing the games and winning / collecting / trading cards (and they treated me nicer cause I was a younger and a girl). Because back then pokemon was the bomb.
Now I have all my holo cards in a folder and my other cards sorted in some massive box.

Posted by: Kallona Sep 21 2011, 04:03 PM

I remember this very well, since my mom was like "no way you are starting to collect those cards" just because she probably though I will get bored with them soon enough and it would be a waste. But here I am.
And what it comes to the first card, well, I can't remember what were the other cards in my first booster, but one of them was holo Flareon. It was the jungle set.
I didn't know much about pokemon cards back then, I only collected them then, but I KNEW that that particular card was COOL. Heh, nostalgic.

A Squirtle card which was one of the reasons that made Squirtle my favorite Pokémon.

Hmm, I'm not quite sure. It was AGES ago when I was really young that I remember having a "Kabutops" card - was my favorite at the time. :P Probably the rarest card I've ever got, which is sadly now lost due to my once childish & destructive nature, would have to be that "Mew" card I received when the family went to go watch one of the very first Pokemon Movies. happy.gif It was all holographic and glimmer-ish and depicted an ancient-looking carving of cute little Mew on it. Pretty awesome. ^^

I can't remember much about the packs back then but I remember when gen 2 came out I got a larvitar as my first gen 2 pokemon in card form. Still have it in a shoe box somewhere. I borrowed my siblings games and cards most of the time until gen 2 anyway which was when I got my very own gameboy color and a copy of Pokemon Crystal.

Posted by: Pkmn Trainer Jae Jan 7 2019, 07:28 PM

Old fart alert, but my first cards are a (kinda) funny story. Right when Pokemon was starting to get big, my neighbor got fired from Walmart and on her way out... may have slid a few packs into her purse. And by a few, I mean a few dozen. Her little sister and her sister's friends got the lion's share of the packs, but I scored a few. What can I say - five year olds aren't known for their morals, plus I don't think anyone told me the full story at the time. :P

Anyway, I don't remember the very first card, but I was the only one to not get a Pikachu and I distinctly remember getting a Sandshrew and thinking 'eh close enough'

Posted by: LetterU Mar 7 2019, 01:29 PM

My first card was from a McDonald's promo thing, it was a fire type but I don't recall the Pokemon..

Posted by: venusambassador Jan 9 2020, 03:25 PM

So the cards were actually our introduction to Pokemon! Some kid in Kindergarten got some and being kids we were "trading" them, which pretty much meant just giving them out. The kid who got the cards gave us one, and it was Root Fossil cart from EX Legend Maker, and we were attached to that thing. I'm talking like we would "play" with the card, and eventually we got more cards and started to collect them, and from this love of the cards we got into the games, anime, and the rest is history.

We've been meaning to go through our cards for a bit, but honestly once we find this card again we need to frame it haha

What was the first card you ever got from your very first pack?

Surprisingly, mine was a Holographic Venusaur - got it in fourth grade. I had no idea how rare it was until somebody told me. I lost them all somewhere along the line though...

I got that Charmeleon card from a magazine. Years ago, I used to subscribe to a Nintendo magazine, and one of them contained that Charmeleon card at https://collectorpricing.org. I wasn't really into Pokemon at the time, and I was only just learning about it. But I kept it because I knew it was special in some way. I'm surprised I never misplaced the card or anything... But then I discovered Pokemon, and the rest, as they say, is history:)
