What was your first pokemon card

[PokeCommunity.com] What was your first pokemon card


This is my first card; a holo Leafeon n_n
I got a Japanese Eevee pack - basically Eevee and it's evos. - for my birthday.
That one was the first one which I got out ^____^ Man, I love that card.
 
I don't remember the first card I saw. The first TCG I got was a R/S/E deck. I did find some G/S/C boosters, which I opened before the deck.

The first card I remember seeing come out of the pack was a Promo Ho-oh.

A zapdos. And the promo oen in the deck.
 
Base Set Gastly. I remember playing against my sister with the cards that we shared from two packs, and having no concept of how the game was actually played. Energyless attacks for the win.

I think you can only get that card in a magazine, along with another promo which is a rapidash...

The first card I got was a Drowzee. Me and my brother got a base set pack the first day pokemon came out in english, and the first card I got was the Drowzee. I still remember him finding a holographic charizard in his... Can't believe he was that lucky.
 
My first card was a base set machop (the one where its holding up the rock with one hand). It was laminated and was bent diagonally across the middle. I loved that card. My dad then bought me like seven boosters from the jungle/base I think. I then got going. I had the Zapdos that did like 100 damage, and I had jolteon and vaporeon. I then got ahold of a mewtwo with a wierd background. I looked different then my friends holo mewtwo (one was a fake?) but I still have that machop my friend gave me. It makes me feel good just to read it. I don't know about you guys, but where I lived, pretty much no one battled with the cards. We all just collected and traded them. And also we called the holofoil cards Gold Cards (still do).

This past week I was in Epcot at Disney. I went to Japan in the world Showcase. Not only did I find an Electric Feraligatr and a psychic Typhlosion card, I bought a Brushfire, and Overgrow and a water blast theme deck. I felt so cool!
 
My first card was a meowth with gold trimming that I stole from a neighbor boy. I got most of my cards back then from stealing them.
 
i was 5 yrs old. my first Pokémon card was the holo Mewtwo you got from Pokémon: The First Movie. i used to take it everywhere. then i collected more cards at 6 and later gave the Mewtwo to a girlfriend i had 3 yrs ago.
 
My first Pokémon card was a Holographic Meowth which came, I believe, with the Pokémon TCG for Gameboy Color. XD I was so proud of it back then because it was my only Pokémon card for a long time.
 
^^^
Yeah I have that one still in it's plastic thing, it came with the Pokemon TCG game.


I don't remember exactly all of the cards in the first pack I got, but I do know the rare was a Venasaur. I was so little then, I remember going around the house and pretending I was each of the pokemon I got in the pack, lol


Back then, and still to this day, whenever I open a pack, I look through them slowly one by one, just because it feels awesome knowing I could be holding a really rare card behind all the common ones.
 
My first card was a Base set Abra which I traded my lunch money and all of my Pkmn pencils for. That fifth grader drove a hard bargain. -nods- Then I realized I was being cheated, and told the teacher. O_o

I miss the fourth grade. -cries-
 
Rhydon <3 i will never forget that day i smashed my sister's onix with my Rhydon xD

Still one of my favorite cards. Wish I still had it :(
 
My first cards were from a booster pack which I gota non-holo pidgeot.(Pidgeot looks really epic in The jungle set .)

But I traded it like a week later for an Arcanine cause,-lolz-
growlithe was my favorite, so I needed its evolution.:\

I still miss it that pidgeot...
 
I don't know how, and I can't remember where but the first card I seen at the top of the small pile I just slid out of a booster pack, was a 1st edition Charizard...

Then, my uncle told my dad to sell it (since he was a Pokemon collector)... I couldn't really say anything, I was just a kid. So he sold it, and got $90 for it, then bought me 2 more boosters since that was the limit stores had back when Pokemon was first released.

Now when I think back, I get frustrated... That card is worth $250-$500 today.
 
Hell, I can remember kids showing me cards and I badly, desperatly pleaded for one in prep until one gave into my demands and gave me 2 cards. A Fighting Energy and a Base Machop. This of course was about 9 years ago. I don't have the original copies sadly. Wish i did though.
