Now 'trading cards' are just cards with ugly pictures and have a shitty game that goes along with them. Asians are slowly ruining everything american.
BS, pokemon has been around for nearly as long as you've been alive, it just wasn't as mainstream in your area I guess. These things were a big hit where I live.

I have a plastic bag full of pokemon/magic/yu-gi-oh/harry potter cards that I've had ever since I was in my early teens. I rarely ever played the games, my friends just liked to dump whatever they thought to be uncool/out of fashion on me, and even back then I was aware of the value of a silly little card and how their value goes up over the years.

I really should dig them up and grab an up to date card value list.
