1996! That's when the world was blessed with the Pokemon TCG. Can you believe it's been that long? Makes me feel old thinking about all the booster packs I've opened since then!

The Pokemon card game, known as the Pokemon Trading Card Game, first hit the shelves in October 1996. It rolled out as part of the Pok茅mon craze that was already sweeping the globe, thanks to the video games and the anime. Japan got it first, then the rest of us were catching 'em all not too long after!
