Where to start

[EmiratesRob]

Hello everyone, welcome to my first post!

So as the title describes, I have no idea where to start anymore. When I was younger it was just Pokemon card please sir, and I would get a pack or two. Now there is this generation, X&Y etc.

I'd like to start buying cards again to collect, possibly sell at a later stage depends. But I have not played the game or bought a pack in such a long time, I feel like I barely know what is going on anymore.

If you could please suggest a box to buy (i'm going to buy booster boxes not packs) that is the most up to date/best to start collecting with I would be grateful. I know that generations has different boxes that have larger cards but id like to start with booster boxes.
If you wouldnt mind saying the card(s) I should be looking out for in the boxes aswell, I.E Mega(x)

I am from the UK if that makes any difference.

It really depends what sort of box you're after-are you after ta box which is more useful in TCG so can sell doubles, or a box that the set has nice artwork?

I admin a large UK Pokemon Facebook group (if you're on facebook) and there's lots of advice there if you'd like me to send you the link

Hi there,

Im not sure. Id sell doubles, but I also appreciate nice looking cards. i'll probably do openings on my youtube channel so a box that has more "appeal" would be beneficial.

Regards Facebook, Yes that would be grand
